What DHA’s HAP Freeze Means for Investors (And Why We’re Still Bullish on Dallas)

While this could shrink the tenant pool short-term, it’s not the red flag some may fear. We spoke directly with DHA insiders and are sharing what this change really means—and why Dallas still holds strong long-term potential for smart investors.
