DMLS parts have equivalent properties to wrought materials for the most part, far superior to castings anyway. They do need a post-build heat treatment to relieve the stresses caused by the welding of the build process. They should also be shot-peened afterwards to help with fatigue (smooth surfaces don't initiate fatigue cracks like a rough surface).
