They ask for 50% upfront, material costs (or combination), and they prefer cash. 

(So, do you really have a PREFERRED return?) 

EB is great source of renters with solid incomes and I have found that our EB renters seem to prefer our listings in Groton being closer to EB and in some cases walking distance.

The BRRRR strategy is my preferred way to buy and I have wroked that strategy many times.

Since the adjustment, we have not been paid in full on the first of the month.In my experience, it is generally preferable to rent to lower income folks with no credit that are typically found in the same neighborhoods, such as recent immigrants.

This is still preferable to platforms like Airbnb where there may be more fees depending on how much of the fees you pass through to the tenant via your pricing.

I would suggest doing a google search and see what you can find, and maybe even call up some people that have a successful STR treehouse or preferably a treehouse village.

I guess that means, there is healthy demand for rents in the metroplex.I am curious if there is a city or few Zip codes within Tulsa, Broken arrow, Bixby, Jenks and Owasso, that is preferred by prospective tenants ? 

When I do it I prefer informing them what current market rents are and then just give my new rate.

I would recommend focusing on markets/sub markets that will provide a more consistent return so take your time and be careful in the areas you're investing in.Personally I prefer the middle/southern part of the country because the price points are much lower and the laws are landlord friendly.
