Welcome to Dallas, Texas the sunny home of the All American football team the
Dallas Cowboys and America’s Sweetheart cheerleaders. Texas, the state where
steaks are plentiful and the oil industry provides massive job opportunities.
Stroll through downtown during late September through early October when the
leaves are vibrantly morphing from a green to a beautiful array of orange, red
and yellow hues. Enjoy the exhilarating atmosphere of the largest state fair in
the United States at our famous Cotton Bowl Stadium. The Dallas Fort Worth
metropolitan area, also known as "the Metroplex contains roughly over 6.1
million people. It is the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States.
Dallas has a population of over 1.2 million people in the city of Dallas itself.
Dallas being the 9th most popular metropolitan area in the United States is
still firmly holding strong in the real estate arena as well as providing
continuous job growth.
Dallas Texas real estate community still
holds sturdy and is extremely resilient despite the media. Experts credit much
of the growth in the South to relatively strong local economies and housing
prices that are among the most affordable in the U.S. As a result of the
numerous job opportunities and the affordable standard of living in North Texas
it has made Dallas a target area to live in. Strong companies housing their
headquarter in Dallas such as AT&T, Comerica Bank, Texas Instrument, EDS,
Dr.Pepper, Frito Lay, Neiman Marcus and American Airlines, just to name a few
has provided thousands of jobs for our local economy. With all the media chaos
from what you read and hear on the internet, the radio and the television, that
the real estate market has really plummeted, this is very untrue to Dallas. Our
steady appreciation over the years has been the main factor that has saved our
economy in Dallas to not fail like that of the West Coast and the East Coast.
For example, a typical home bought 5-10 years ago in California for $400,000
immediately appreciated within a 6-12 month period of 100%! Whereas in the
steady yet stable market of Texas our average price of $180,000 would slowly
appreciate to $200,000 after three years. Regardless of how slow it took us to
actually make some money on our real estate this has also enable us to see a
very small decline if at all in our home prices. How can you possibly lose
something you never had? Dallas-Fort Worth added more than 162,000 residents
between July 2006 and July 2007, more than any other metro area according to the
Census Bureau. Dallas was ranked on Yahoo real estate in June 2008 one of the
top 10 cities holding strong in the real estate market. A few years ago we would
complain and fuss about the real estate opportunities in California or Florida
but now us Texans can truly kick our feet up and not worry about losing money
when we’re selling our homes.
So with the strong job opportunities and the powerful
Dallas real estate market Dallas, Texas is
a phenomenal place to live and raise a family. So come out to the Dallas
metroplex and come enjoy our shopping, eating, entertainment and the largest
State Fair around! There’s so much to do and so much to see and if you choose
not to do anything you can still thoroughly enjoy the warm fall weather in
Texas! Even if you don’t choose Dallas as a place to live come visit it will be
a place ya’ll never forget!
