View Dallas market analysis →The Surge Take: Red Oak
Red Oak scores 58.3/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #44 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. The average listing here grosses $51,836/year — about 30% above the Dallas metro average.
The revenue profile is a $279 average daily rate at 60% occupancy (RevPAR $142). 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.
