Living in Hillside Dallas: Homes, Layouts & Local Trips

A Hillside home search is a chance to compare the house and the way you would use its East Dallas setting. Start with the rooms, outdoor space and updates that suit you, then try the trips that would become part of your week.

Home from the Hillside Dallas housing guide
Compare the actual home’s layout, condition and outdoor space.

Compare the home before the style label

Walk through the kitchen, living rooms and bedrooms in the order you would use them. A separate dining room may suit you better than one large living space, or you may prefer a more connected arrangement. Measure key rooms against your furniture and identify where you would work or host guests.

In a renovated or expanded house, look at the transitions between original and added rooms. Review available records and have the home inspected. New finishes do not establish the condition of the roof, structure or major systems.

Include outdoor space in the decision

Consider the yard or patio you will actually use, the shade at different times of day and the connection to the main living area. Ask the inspector about drainage and any conditions that need further evaluation. Decide which improvements are essential before moving in and which can wait.

Try your everyday East Dallas routes

Hillside Village’s Dallas website offers shopping, dining and service directories. Use it to choose a destination you would visit, then test the trip from a house on your shortlist.

Do the same for your commute and outdoor routine. Return at another time of day and observe the surroundings. An address that looks close on a map may offer a different route or level of activity than you expect.

Compare ownership costs and school assignments

Use recent sales that reflect the property’s lot, size, condition and renovation scope. Include taxes, insurance, maintenance and planned work in your budget instead of comparing list prices alone.

Confirm school assignments for the exact address, grade and school year with Dallas ISD’s SchoolSite Locator and the district. A broad neighborhood label does not establish eligibility.

After doing a quick Google search for realtors in the Dallas area, I came across Dustin Pitts. His Youtube series is definitely worth a view, especially if you are new to the area. We found Dustin to be knowledgeable, flexible and persistent in helping us find our forever home. He was available anytime we had a question or needed some advice.

Dustin was great! I was looking to purchase an investment home in Dallas and was very particular in what I did, and did not want. Dustin probably showed me at least 10+ houses and never once complained, and even reminded me to check into the tax implications of an investment home vs homestead. He was super responsive, and knowledgeable about a lot of the East Dallas neighborhoods I was looking in. He did have to ā€˜talk me off the ledge’ at least twice with this insanely crazy real estate market, and it all worked out. I will definitely use Dustin again if I buy another home.

We got hooked up with Dustin through a Zillow inquiry and boy did we hit the jackpot! Dustin helped us through every step of the home buying process and was a huge blessing as first time home buyers. He showed us close to 100 houses, helped us narrow our search down, and ultimately found us the perfect home for us that ticked all of our boxes. He is responsive, so so patient, and knowledgeable. We will definitely be using Dustin for all of our real estate needs in DFW from here on out. I highly recommend him to anyone shopping for a home in any price range and with any amount of home buying experience.

I can't say enough good things about Dustin. We began working together months before I was ready to purchase, and he patiently met me for several showings just to get an idea of what I was looking for. Dustin recommended a great lender, who got me pre-qualified and ready to go. I finally found the home I ended up buying, and the whole experience was smooth as silk. It took only a few weeks to close. The entire time, Dustin was more than responsive and went above and beyond to make sure everything happened on schedule, even as we were headed into the pandemic. He has also helped when I've had questions after the purchase. If you are looking for a great realtor, I HIGHLY recommend Dustin Pitts!
