Looking for a Small Multifamily in OKC

[Morgan Reinart]

Hi all! We're in need of a little BiggerPockets help. The short story: My wife and I have decided to sell our house and house hack our way into OKC. We are searching for a house with a guesthouse, duplex, triplex or four plex in the urban core of Oklahoma City. The long story: We've sold our house in Alva and are moving 3 hours away to OKC for a new career. We had a 2 bed duplex within 4 blocks of the Plaza District under contract to house hack also with our two kids, but days before closing the deal fell through. We had previously made an offer on a 2 bedroom, 2 bath home with a 2 bedroom 2 bath guesthouse in the Classen 10 Penn neighborhood, but got into a multiple offer scenario and we were outbid. We move from Alva to OKC this week into a short term rental, which will allow us to look at properties much more quickly than when we were 3 hours away. We've looked at everything on the MLS right now, and none of them are actually a good deal or the good deals are moving faster than we've been able to get to. Anyone know of any off-market deals or ones that will be coming soon?

that area is extremely hot right now especially the "better" streets.  lots of folks looking for the same thing as you.  best advice i know if is to be patient keep your eyes open.  when you see what you like jump on it fast and get it under contract.  also be aware everything in the area that is a "good" deal will need some work to make it a great property.
