in the process of buying an investment property. which areas are better for long term investment in fort worth area? contemplating between Saginaw, Crowley and Cleburne. 


 Hello

I am knowledgeable in those areas and I live in Crowley.

I would rank

#1 Saginaw

#2 Crowley

# 3 Cleburne

feel free to message me for more information.


 Is there a reason you would rank Saginaw highest of those and do you think the closer you get to the grapevine area your roi would be better? 


 My rankings have nothing to do with the Grapevine area. I rank Saginaw #1 because of their school district and they're more centrally located in DFW, than the other 2.

Crowley does not have a great school district, however they do have a huge rental market

Cleburne is growing but still trying to gain traction. In a few years it'll be a hot market, just not there yet.

Hi Hunter!

Local DFW Realtor here. I have a great lender who is local and well versed in investment loan products including HML. Reach out if you want her information.

Also, can I get more information about the home you're tying to sell? Depending on the area/neighborhood, $300 might be too low or too high. 

Also, Realtor fees may not be as bad as you think. 

I just commented on a post where someone asked the value of using a Realtor to list his property because he's trying to sell one in Lower Greenville... this is what I told him.

**No pressure and reach out if you have any questions. Good luck no matter what you decide! 😊

1️⃣ Maximum Exposure – Your home will be listed on the MLS, giving it visibility to thousands of buyers and their agents. This means more interest, more competition, and potentially a higher selling price.

2️⃣ Professional Marketing – High-quality, professional photos and strategic marketing make a huge difference in attracting serious buyers. Professional photography and staging advice can make your home stand out.

3️⃣ Managing Showings & Offers – Coordinating showings, handling inquiries, and negotiating offers can be overwhelming. A Realtor takes care of everything, ensuring you don’t waste time on unqualified buyers.

4️⃣ Pricing Strategy – Overpricing can cause your home to sit on the market, while underpricing leaves money on the table. A Realtor provides a comparative market analysis to price your home competitively.

5️⃣ Negotiation Power – From handling multiple offers to negotiating repairs and closing costs, a skilled Realtor works to get you the best deal.

6️⃣ Smooth Closing Process – Contracts, inspections, appraisals, and paperwork can be stressful. A Realtor guides you through every step to avoid costly mistakes or delays.

Quote from @Ron Johnson:

I have found that resources to list your property by owner are very scarce. As a seller, I'd like to support buyer agents. I'd like to promote that fact but it seems that all agents believe you need to be on MLS. Are there better resources? Or am I missing something.

 Hello! Local DFW Realtor here. I believe you might be missing a few key benefits of listing with a great Realtor.


1️⃣ Maximum Exposure – Your home will be listed on the MLS, giving it visibility to thousands of buyers and their agents. This means more interest, more competition, and potentially a higher selling price.

2️⃣ Professional Marketing – High-quality, professional photos and strategic marketing make a huge difference in attracting serious buyers. Your photos are decent, but professional photography can make your home stand out.

3️⃣ Managing Showings & Offers – Coordinating showings, handling inquiries, and negotiating offers can be overwhelming. A Realtor takes care of everything, ensuring you don’t waste time on unqualified buyers.

4️⃣ Pricing Strategy – Overpricing can cause your home to sit on the market, while underpricing leaves money on the table. A Realtor provides a comparative market analysis to price your home competitively.

5️⃣ Negotiation Power – From handling multiple offers to negotiating repairs and closing costs, a skilled Realtor works to get you the best deal.

6️⃣ Smooth Closing Process – Contracts, inspections, appraisals, and paperwork can be stressful. A Realtor guides you through every step to avoid costly mistakes or delays.

Don't get me wrong... there are a lot of lazy and worthless Realtors out there. However, there are many great ones that add value to the sale of your property. 

Good luck! Let me know if you have any questions.

Quote from @James Phillips:

Hello all, 

My family and I are considering a move to Dallas, and I'm hoping to connect with real estate investors who are actively running a flipping, BRRR, or development business. Ideally, I'd like to find someone looking for both a dedicated team member and a potential capital partner.

I have a master's degree in finance, but my real passion is in real estate and construction. My background includes project management, financial modeling, and launching a real estate private equity fund. I currently lead development efforts for a design/build firm, overseeing everything from financial analysis and underwriting to deal structuring and execution. I have experience building financial models that provide a clear, data-driven approach to investment decisions and project feasibility. While I bring strong analytical and finance skills to the table, I much prefer to be involved in the actual work of getting deals done rather than sitting behind a spreadsheet all day. Moreover, I'd much prefer to make a connection on here, as opposed to the mundane Indeed job search.

I also have a $100K line of credit that I’d be willing to invest as part of a partnership in the right opportunity. I’m looking for an investor or firm in Dallas who could use an experienced, finance-minded team member with hands-on project management skills and a deep understanding of real estate development. If you're growing your business and looking for someone who can both contribute to daily operations and bring capital to the table, I’d love to connect and see if we can create a win-win opportunity. Looking forward to hearing from like-minded investors—feel free to comment here or send me a message.


 I love it! Are you 'married' to Dallas, so-to-speak, or are you open to other parts of DFW?
