Hi BP, I am looking to invest the OKC market long term hold real estate. 

How long did you hold this property for?  

Quote from @Scott Davis: I am new to the investment space and want to pursue a buy and hold rental strategy.

If you don't meet that 12 month seasoning requirement and/or want to hold the property under an LLC, a debt service loan may be a better option.

Which may also be a reason to hold on to your current place (appreciation).Second, have you been in your primary at least two years.

Quote from @Michael Johnson: Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

I could probably hold off on the basement flooring, though.

What is interesting is our held for sale are the longer term notes as we do not plan to hold them for 10+ years.

If you plan to use the remaining HELOC for a DSCR or BRRR strategy, that could help you build more equity, but consider if the current market conditions will lead to higher rates and lower cash flow in the near term.If your goal is to scale, you might consider holding onto your current duplex for the cash flow and focusing on the BRRR/DSCR strategy, which can allow for more control and potentially better long-term returns.

Like you a purchased my primary residence in 2017 as an estate sale and landed an amazing deal which still holds a large amount of equity.
