Hey Jerry - Tulsa and OKC are both booming markets and ones that drive the most demand in Oklahoma.

I think if you can nail that down you will be able to find a market easier.As a buy and hold investor some of the things that were important to me when deciding on a market were landlord tenant laws, price to rent ratio, housing demand, ability to build a team, large population 500K plus, multi-family availability and some other factors.take the process step by step and you will be fine. 

Being in Arlington, you’re in a prime area for finding multi-family units with strong rental demand, so you’re in a great position to make this work.We’re excited to have you here and look forward to hearing more about your journey!

@Katie Lyon Because our weather is more temperate over the winter months, we have much more consistency in demand across all times of the year, so typically the market stays fairly consistent through all seasons.

there's a tremendous demand for inventory - both primary residences and rentals - and so buyers are willing to accept lower yield than a lot of us think makes sense. 

With substantial equity in your Fort Worth rental, a cash-out refinance could free up funds to purchase additional properties.

@Surya S KumaresanYou're in a great position to grow your real estate portfolio in Atlanta, a market with strong appreciation and rental demand.

It’s one of the strongest cash flow markets in the country, with relatively low property prices and solid rental demand.

Unless you've done substantial improvements to the building or used a large down payment when buying, it's unlikely this will work.Perhaps your best move is to find a new primary residence that is 2-4 units and repeat the process.

Tiertiary markets can get you to 1% rules on paper but then it'll all be based on demand and tenant class.
