New construction costs can vary on several factors - land development, total sqft built area, on-site/off-site utilities, retention/detention area, covered/open parking, type of foundation and the list goes on.
Do u have all permits from your City/County? Review civil & Archtect plans to see if u can save development costs

There are several suburbs in DFW market with excellent/decent schools. It would be hard to find a cash flow property in Plano, Frisco, Allen areas but there are other suburbs where u can buy SFH /Duplex/4-plex with cash flow.
Tarrant county in Fort Worth has strong rental market & u can find properties < $200k but schools aren’t great. These cash flow well
PM me & we can discuss further. I moved from Bay Area 18yrs back to DFW & never looked back. I am Real Estates agent & developer in Dallas area

Most Brokers don’t have this restriction on agents buying investment properties
Investors don’t need RE license unless u plan to do multiple transactions/year. RE agents also have over head costs with their brokerage
If u do plan to practice as RE agent and help others buy/sell properties it might be worth getting a license. Otherwise work with an experienced local agent

U can terminate PM on closing. You do need to honor current leases with same terms & conditions. After closing write a lease transfer or new lease agreement with only change in Landlord name & contact
Get all the tenant deposits, extra keys & pro-rated rents at closing.

Just to give u a price point on inspection quotes - we got a quote of ~$3500 on 106-unit inspection in Dallas. Inspection company was going to use 8-inspectors to get all units inspection done on the same day.
We always get all units inspected to know the repairs/re-model costs. This also gives another chance to negotiate with Sellers
