About

How the registry is built

Dallas Towers exists because the most important facts about a condominium aren't in the listing. Dues history, bylaw restrictions, reserve health, view protection — the things that decide whether a purchase works out — live in documents most buyers never see until they're under contract. We read those documents, for every named building in the Metroplex, and publish what they say.

01

Independent

Dallas Towers is a research publication. We're not affiliated with any HOA, developer, or property manager, and no building can pay to change its file. Buildings are profiled because they exist, not because anyone asked.

02

Document-first

Every bylaw summary traces to the recorded declaration or current rules. Every dues figure traces to a resale certificate or budget. When we can't verify something, the file says so instead of guessing.

03

Dated & maintained

Every building file carries a "last verified" date, and market pages recompute on the first of each month. Stale data is worse than no data — the date is our accountability.

04

Free to read

The registry is free, with no login walls. The optional email tracks are how we grow — one message a month, only for the buildings or districts you choose.

Where the numbers come from

County deed records
Closed sale prices and transfer history from Dallas and Tarrant County recorded instruments.
Appraisal districts
DCAD and TAD certified rolls for assessed values, unit inventories, square footage, and tax rates.
HOA document sets
Recorded declarations, bylaws, current rules, budgets, and resale certificates gathered building by building.
Permits & planning
City of Dallas and Fort Worth permit filings and zoning cases, which drive the construction tracker.
Field verification
Buildings are walked. Amenity lists, stack orientations, and view notes come from being there, not from marketing copy.

Corrections

  1. If a file is wrong, we fix it fast. Owners, board members, and managers can flag errors on any building file; verified corrections publish with the next update.
  2. Corrections are logged. Material changes to a building file are noted in the file itself, with dates.
  3. Documents win. Where a claim and a recorded document disagree, the document decides.
