Welcome to Dallas, you will love it. Do you mean like buy a house?

Nice places in coppell, Plano and frisco depending where you will be working in Dallas

Just moved to Uptown and so far loving my building! Depends on whether you’re looking to rent or buy. And what your price range is

your question is badly worded!! You should definitely wait until you get there, and then get an airBNB for a week while you scope out your target listings, and then move in. if you're a young professional then get an Apt in either Lower Greenville, oak cliff/bishop arts, or uptown

oh sick. So idk what are you worried you might not be able to find? imo the first things I like to have before leaving is, believe it or not, floor and surace cleaning supplies. Usually when you get a apartment it's kinda dingey so I always want to fresh clean the floors before moving my stuff in, so it doesn't get dirty. I'm a bit of a neat freak and don't wear shoes in the house. what neighborhood are you in?

Why has real estate remained lucrative?
Mainly agents but also developers.

The barrier to entry is low, not even sure if graduating high school is needed. My old agent even said she did it bc she can make a lot money and not work that much. She drove a new Mercedes and sent her kids to private school, husband was also an agent.

So I’m curious why it didn’t get flooded and the profit margin dampened to a $/hr closer to other jobs with similarly easy entry?

Happy wife happy life is a really toxic saying. I’m just shocked how this has become the standard saying for men in relationships. I have friends of mine saying this all the time, and I have just thought it’s so cringe and always want to say my thoughts on it but always decide to hold back. However, imagine the saying reversed - happy husband happy life - that would lead to all kinds of uproar. To me happy wife happy life means I need to sacrifice my wants and needs to make my wife happy.
