I'm looking at Pattonville school district...

My advice to my daughter and son-in-law as they did not want multi-family, either, and wanted to buy a home to live in,  not just investment property, was to buy something that needs some work, plan to fix it up within the 2-year tax-credit time period, sell and keep profits tax-free, then buy another one that needs work and repeat until children need a solid school district.   

I love what Landed (www.landed.com) is doing, starting off with a focus on school teachers so they can afford to live in the districts where they teach.Something I'd love to do when I have the resources is establish rental properties that are affordable based on one's income across the board, e.g. rent NTE 25% of take-home pay (or 30% of gross monthly, or whatever makes the most sense).

Form should have come in the same letter notifying you of the Tax Appraisal District proposed Tax Value for the current year.

A highly rentable SFH in a great school district may go for 250k and up with rents starting around $1500.  

depends on the area and size. central MWC (reno to 29th and between sooner and douglas) is correct, but there are definitely some pockets there that can score over $1k (north of reno before 10th between sooner and midwest blvd, as well as east of douglas in carl albert school district).

We are looking for a home more on the east side of the valley right now and will be there on July 11th or 12th to house hunt, so if any wholesalers have a house in a good school district that will fit a family of 8 I'd be interested in talking with you. 

This is a property in a B+ neighborhood in a good school district which appreciates.I am not interested in selling but would like to hold this property.

Shopping districts within casinos.  

While this could also represent an opportunity - be realistic in how much more in rent the market can stomach (after fixing up, if you go that route), and review the school district boundaries to identify the best schools in Auburn.
