Durham on the other hand is a great opportunity for investors seeking more short-term growth, more options, and higher likelihood of cashflow. 

After 45 + years as a real estate investor, broker, lender, fund manager and syndicator, I’ve become aware that the “dream” of many investors and investor “hopefuls” is to be able to generate enough cash flow to live off their real estate holdings and accumulate enough wealth to make “work” optional.

I had two real options, University of Oklahoma or Oklahoma State University.

Six-unit apartments are an excellent investment choice, and I’d be happy to help you explore options that align with your goals.Looking forward to hearing from you!

@Robert StephensonIt’s great that you’ve built solid equity in your current rental property— Here are a few options to consider:Cash-Out Refinance: You can refinance your rental property and pull out some of the equity to use as a down payment for another property.

I was originally drawn to it because I wanted to have one place where all my tenants paid rent and where they had the option to set up auto payments. 

The tenants have the option of something like a rent strike but they should know they could be evicted and then will be forced to move - if there is cheaper rent, then that seems doable.

In option 2, your costs are $25k higher.

Just one additional option.  

There is a ton of fix and flip going on in Brooklyn and I am trying to work my confidence towards that after my first project at a lower price point around 300K somewhere (CT seems like my only option).
