Out of state Investor; looking into Oklahoma...

Hello all,

I am an out of state investor from Southern California.  I've done quite a bit of research on some out of state rental investment opportunities.  I was initially leaning towards Las Vegas but I soon learned the investors have drove the prices up quite a bit in these last few years causing my potential cash flow to diminish.  I have really been focusing and doing quite a bit of homework in the state of Oklahoma, more specifically Norman, Ok.  I was wondering if any of you local or out of state investors can offer any feedback on the area?  Success stories, etc.  Thanks for any input, I really appreciate it.

@George P. heard! I was thinking you were paying property management and I was thinking there's no reason to be nearby if someone you trust is doing the work for you! I see so many investors come to OKC that are out of state and happy, and I try so hard to re-set standards when people hold back because they're scared. I heard once on a BP podcast actually that when you invest at home, you're generally not driving to the property on a regular basis, as long as you have someone doing it, not being within driving range of your property is no reason to not make more money in a market that's hitting your return goals.
