Oklahoma City's rental market is flourishing, displaying a strong demand and steady growth with a notable 10% increase in the median rent for single-family homes over the past year. Zip codes such as 73110, known for vibrant urban living; 73105, offering diverse rental options near downtown; 73127, with consistent demand from students near the University of Central Oklahoma; 73132, a family-friendly area with excellent schools; and 73114, in proximity to Tinker Air Force Base, drawing military personnel, stand out for long-term rental investments. Successfully meeting the 1% rule is achievable in these zip codes through thoughtful property selection and financial planning. For a monthly cash flow of at least $200, prioritize properties with lower mortgage payments, consider maintenance and vacancy costs, and target areas with high rental demand. Finding homes in the $100,000 to $150,000 price range is practical, especially in areas with more affordable housing options that may benefit from some renovation or updating.

Hey @Vincent Ho, it might be difficult to find a duplex under $150k that doesn't need work. You might look in south Oklahoma City, Midwest City, Mustang and Del City in the $100-150k range. The areas with better schools tend to be north of $225k.
