Quote from @Matthew McLaughlin: Is this a market you believe will perform well for the next 10-20 years?

It seems like you enjoy being active and using your hands so maybe the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) is your best bet as you could save some money and do plenty on your own, you could also do a live in flip potentially and sell it or rent it out later.

I'll bet my favorite Tulsa super-agent, @Tom O'Stasik, could answer your questions!

In fact I would bet not even the asset protection services who send you down these rabbit holes can and therein lies the problem...

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

If you have a 12-month history of the property's performance, you may be able to get some wiggle room with more local banks for it.One thing that may impact the lender's ability to lend could be the Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR), but as long as the property cash flows well then that shouldn't be an issue. 

Can the syndicator be removed if they are not performing? 

It may make evictions of non-performing tenants difficult or impossible.

We invest in both performing and non performing loans and when we acquire a performing loan at a discount, we have in house MLO who can try and refinance the borrower, we also will offer a discount to the borrower to refinance the loan.

I bet you could quickly get an idea about financing, insuring, and feasibility from them.
