Great information and I look forward to more videos ❤️
Awesome, thank you so much for watching!
Thanks. Very relevant assessment of the pros and cons.
Thank you for watching!
This was eye opening. I live in MO and we pay a lot of taxes. Even if we live in apartments you still pay personal property taxes if you have a car. We also pay state tax lol . And depending on the city- you pay city tax. I think this is a good contrast .
Oh interesting! Thank you so much for watching!!
Great video
Thank you for watching!
Cons
-air quality

atlanta gotta be on that traffic list somewhere
Oh yes! Atlanta definitely has some traffic!

I don’t think homes our as affordable as they used to be if you can find some. Oakcliff might have a few but other than that Dallas is getting expensive
Prices have definitely increase but you can still find homes in the $200ks just depending on where you are looking. You cannot find that at all in other states.
@@deewaltonrealtor true that do you also find apartments. Ima need one eventually down there
@@Blk_pantherfit yes of course, just give me a call when you are ready 469-708-6596
@@deewaltonrealtor ok thanks A lot i will plug your info in my phone.
@@Blk_pantherfit 👍🏾
Can you make a video on the activities to do there in Dallas?
Yes! Will do. Thank you for watching
#1 The worst drivers in the country.
lol agreed!
That would be Oklahoma (Oklahoma City & Tulsa)
We are thinking of moving. I want to live no more than 30 mins away from our new home. I work in a hospital so I need a nice 3 bedroom, 2 and a half bath and with a attached garage and a nice large yard with a good size kitchen. I really don't care too much for a big living room.
Thank you so much for watching! Please feel free to schedule a call for us to discuss what you are looking for using this link: calendly.com/deew-realtor/lets-chat-real-estate. Looking forward to chatting with you soon!
I disagree about toll, once you learn your way around, we have streets you can take from one side of town to the other, may take a little more time, you don't have to use tolls, learn your directions
Thanks for watching!
You can make a point without been unecessarily rude
I avoid the tolls, but I have backways and side streets those tolls add up for real
What is funny to me is your “disagreement” is literally a reiteration of what she actually said …
Hello, I'm planning to move to Dallas this summer. Can you give me your advice on Cedar hill vs. Duncanville. Your pros and cons will be appreciated. Thank you.
Hi, I am moving to Dallas from South Florida, does your company help with finding a rental for new residents or can you refer someone?

I just moved to victory park area from the midwest last week. Is this a safe/good place to live?
Hi Sydney. The downtown area definitely has a diverse living. If you are close to victory park there is a lot of activity but definitely a fun and lively place to be
Question - I have the 100% rating from the Va and thinking about buying in north Dallas. I read that Texas gives a property tax exemption to vets with a rating of 100%. The houses I’m looking at are in the price range of 1.2-1.8 million. Would I be exempt from property taxes or is there a limit? Because if not= I’d save over 50k a year in pt lol

Hey Sawaji! I definitely suggest checking out indeed and LinkedIn And then it’s always good to apply directly to the website of the company of interest. Thank you so much for watching.
Been here for 2 years now. Food sucks. Absolute rubbish. I moved from NYC point of reference. Standard of living is excellent though even though rents and house prices have skyrocketed.
Thank you for watching!
Decent suburbs in Dallas anyone?
A bunch of them... Desoto, ducanville,Richardson,etc
@@neworleanseveryday8450 much appreciation!
You’re so cute !
Thank you for watching!
Nice list and spot on with the pros/cons. However, I disagree w/the tons of things to do. Dallas is boring as crap. Everything is so spread out. You mention the Cowboys, technically that's Arlington. I know folks consider it the "Metroplex" etc but just saying. That's part of the issue w/Dallas, you have drive out and across endless tollways and freeways. It's like wow. LA might be worst but Dallas is up there. The lack of racial diversity is also alarming. You definitely SEE the differences in the North vs South vs East sides. Dallas is a nice city but not for singles like an Atlanta, DC, NYC, etc. Similar to the social life, you have to 'know where to go' in order to enjoy or see the vibe. You have drive over to Addison or find the hidden, deep areas, which are usually in shopping centers/strip malls. Dallas has walkable areas but everyone in Texas seems to drive to point A to B. I don't think people in Dallas will walk a block if they can avoid it. An another "PRO" is the shopping. Dallas has an abundance of shopping options.
Definitely good points. Thanks for watching!
Guess there is interracial dating
Not sure what you mean but thank you for watching!
@@deewaltonrealtor one of the clips. But it.was a joke
You didn't mention a major con: all the little creatures 🤨June Bugs, spiders, snakes, skunks, beetles, mosquitos, ants, etc...Texas is bug heaven 😮 Thanks for the video🙂
Lol very true
I live in Dallas I've been in Dallas for about 10 years now. I like it but I'm not in love with it. The people can be stuck up. Sometime when a black person has a white friend they will ignore you cuz they think they made it and that's pretty much anyway I guess. Sometime the people can be boring it has no culture. They don't know who they are. They don't know how to loosen up and have fun. If you're shopping they will stand in the middle of the house and block you and hold a conversation. Do not try Asian food do not it is terrible. Okay let me see the good things oh one more bad thing. Take your Tylenol with you because you will have a headache with all these potholes and bad roads. Now they don't know what driving is because they can't drive they will cut you off they don't abide by yield and stop sign some of them can't even read it. It's not really Dallas Texas . It's really Little Mexico Puerto Vallarta. Disguise. Now the good things about Dallas is going to the mall North Park or either grapevine hanging out. The club scene terrible. And even if you go out. And you like the dress up. Forget it they don't know fashions. The fashions in the mall but when you see the people they don't wear them. Now every black girl going to have the same hairstyle and the same pair of eyelashes on no individuality at all. I tried so I just gave it up. But besides that it's a nice town.
Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching
Can you make a video on the activities to do there in Dallas?
Will do!
