mooredouglas+Followhow my Dallas, TX Section 8 duplex beat the stock market (34% ROI!)After managing 3 Section 8 properties in Dallas, TX, here’s my unfiltered take: ✅ Pros: 1. Guaranteed rent: Dallas Housing Authority covers 70%+ rent (my 1.8k/moduplexgets1.3k guaranteed!). 2. Tax goldmine: Saved $6K/year with Opportunity Zone deductions near Oak Cliff. 3. Recession-proof: 100% occupancy since 2020 vs. my Airbnb’s 60% slump. ⚠️ Cons: 1. Upfront costs: Dropped $12K on HUD-mandated upgrades (e.g., fire-rated doors in Garland, TX). 2. Bureaucracy blues: Took 53 days to get my first payment—DHA moves slow in peak season! 3. Neighborhood nuance: My South Dallas property had higher maintenance costs than Plano units. Verifier tip: Partner with local PMs who know DFW’s Section 8 quirks. Worth every penny! Fellow Texan investors—would you try this? Or stick to traditional rentals? #section8texas #dallashousinghacks #taxsavings 765Share
