In exploring the top 6 cities for rental investments, our team cross-referenced data points in both commercial and residential markets that show above-average growth mixed with high livability attributes.
The main question we asked ourselves is, “Is there enough corporate growth and migration of America’s youth to this city to the point that is can withstand a recession?”

Dallas, Texas

When analyzing the top 6 rental markets there are several factors that come into play:
- Accessibility to major transit hubs, which provides the workforce mobility to get to their jobs
- Infrastructure planning and spending both in the immediate area and adjacent communities
- New housing development with a focus on affordability
- Social programs available for underserved communities, which protects against blight
- Data showing an incremental increase in educated population
- The economy is fueled by more than one industry
