- Are there any people in the Oregon market that can shed some insight into rent prices and/or multis available for sale?

@John Sheil Doing a refinance in general would probably be a good option for you just to shed that 6.5% HELOC.

I've had plenty of instances where a shed or garage was done without a permit only to have to rip it down because the new buyer cant close until it's gone.

You seriously want to live in a shed?

Maybe you can shed some light on cost savings as it relates to, retaining 1 part of the original structure (in the event of a teardown-rebuild scenario), where be it, a wall or a prescribed portion of the original structure is retained, per the request of the city/county? 

I am curious if there is anyone out there, specifically in Ada, OK or surrounding areas that can shed some light on the market, if there are decent property managers out there, etc.

Hello, Can someone shed some light on this for me.

I wouldn't say that I am extremely experienced, but I have don't a few deals, and since you are only looking for the first deal, I think I can shed enough light for you.From the time I decided that I was going to be a REI, to the time I was signing a contract with a seller was about 4-5 months.

My point is, if we do decide to purchase a residential property over commercial, we'll likely go FHA and then pay down the 22% quickly to shed the PMI. 

Any advice, numbers or light anyone can shed on my scenario?
