The Surge Take: Red Oak

Red Oak scores 56.3/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #45 of 55 Dallas-area submarkets we track. That's in the lower tier of the Dallas market on our score, which usually reflects thinner guest demand. Deals here need to be underwritten conservatively — the entry price has to do the heavy lifting. Average listings gross $48,878/year, roughly in line with the Dallas metro average.

The revenue profile is a $278 average daily rate at 56% occupancy (RevPAR $134). That ADR sits at the premium end, which rewards larger, well-designed properties that photograph well and sleep groups. As a suburban submarket, demand skews toward families, relocations, and medical or project stays — larger homes tend to outperform.

On the regulatory side, Red Oak falls under Red Oak, which is currently permissive: No dedicated STR ordinance; general zoning applies; 13% total HOT confirmed. Low regulatory friction is a real advantage — just verify HOA and deed restrictions, which apply regardless of city or county rules.

Red Oak STR Regulations

Permissive

Jurisdiction: Red Oak · Last verified 2026-07-14

No dedicated STR ordinance; general zoning applies; 13% total HOT confirmed

Red Oak has no specific STR ordinance as of mid-2026. STRs must comply with general zoning (primarily single-family districts R-1 through R-4, RE, RAE) and state HOT requirements.

What operators need to know
  • No dedicated STR registration or permit program

  • State HOT registration with Texas Comptroller (6%)
  • City HOT registration and remittance: 7% local HOT
  • HOA/deed restrictions should be reviewed
Hotel Occupancy Tax
7% city + 6% state = 13% total

HOA covenants and deed restrictions can prohibit short-term rentals regardless of Red Oak rules — always review them before purchasing. Surge handles permitting, registration, and Hotel Occupancy Tax compliance for every property we manage.
