.: Quote from @Robin Simon: Do you own your primary residence overseas or have you owned a primary residence prior to going abroad? 

Quote from @Erwin McClain: I had rental properties out of state but I have been renting rooms in my primary residence for over 10 years since my 2 boys have moved out.

When it comes to building a team, having a strong property manager and real estate agent who really know the OKC market can make a huge difference, especially if you’re out of state.

For example, I have my house, am building a legal JADU, but later down the road I decide to rent my entire house and buy another primary residence.

Like maybe I could pull enough out from heloc on primary residence to pay off debt and then rent out my primary and use the extra cash to payoff heloc and then do another heloc once the original one is paid off.

If you get dealt that character card, your primary challenge is that you need to replace a lot of income to get out of the rat race.

I used them all as primary homes then moved and rented them out.

I’m getting ready to make my next move in 2025 and I’m contemplating on staying here and buying a multi family property as an investment out of state (only an hour away) which would be a lot less capital and have a lot more land lord friendly laws or buy another multifamily as a primary residence locally and hack that property I’m single and live alone.

please send me a case example I'd love to read. that's one appraisal. the knowledge I have as a licensed general contractor working with investors from 5 cities at a time all over the country buidling 3 different floorplans I would say trumps one ADU you read about online 

I think it is different if you live there, speak the language, know the market.
