@Elena S.

Are you getting a separate inspection, should be free, from a foundation company? That way you’ll know exactly how bad it is.

I’m looking at out of state investing in Oklahoma, I’m wondering about Lawton, Ponca City, Tulsa and maybe OKC. Other towns/cities considered. Who can give me ideas? Where would be good? I live in Colorado.

@Zachary Spade One more thing, Suzanne mentions it, go online and print out the “landlord-tenant laws” for your state. Read it.

@Zachary Spade. Hi Zach, I built my stuff and learned a ton of stuff about landlording from the book called “Landlording” by Leigh Robinson. It’s a fantastic easy to read book, with all the the forms and guidance you’ll need to get going. The book has 12 editions that I know of. The author passed away fairly recently. I met him- neat fellow. Check Amazon and/or eBay.
