Hey Jason, Generally speaking the farther north you go in Haltom City, the newer/nicer the houses are. One of our best rentals is in northern Haltom City. It cash flows great, and, in fact, despite my best efforts to find a way to show the taxing authority that the value of that house has dropped, it's actually been the only one in our entire rental portfolio that's consistently increased in value every year even when we've had down markets.
Having said all the above, I'm guessing northern Haltom City is not the location of the "great deals" you've heard about. Lower valued rent houses can have tremendous cash flow, but you have to have a special knack for the property management style that's often required in that world.
That's my two cents. I look forward to other comments on this topic.
