Long-time investor from Tulsa, OK

[Renee Huffaker]

Hi everyone,

My husband and I are long-time investors from Tulsa, OK.  We started investing in 2001 when we lived in Oklahoma City.  Over time, we have slowly transitioned our properties from Oklahoma City to Tulsa. 

We have used our investing as a tool to fund college savings for our three kids.  We primarily focus on buy and hold single-family rentals, but we are also experienced in flips. 

We rehab and property manage almost exclusively on a DIY basis.  We love foreclosures and bank owned properties.  We hate condos or anything with HOAs. 

Our favorite investing buddy is our 4-yr old toy Australian Shepherd - Sam. 

Looking forward to participating in the forums!

We are big fans of the Jenks and Bixby rental markets. Great school districts have led to strong rent appreciation, as I'm sure you've seen with your properties.

Here are a few graphs that you might find interesting. We took Zillow's raw rental data for Bixby, Jenks, Broken Arrow, Owasso and Tulsa and put the data in a graph format showing what rents have done over the last several years. We will be including these in a forthcoming rental market update that will be posted on our company blog soon. All data is courtesy of .
