Keep on being a shining example of quality, Chris.Continued success!

It’s harder to BRRRR in the Tulsa area now due interest rates, you definitely have to buy at a great discount in order to be all in low enough toget all of your money out and the rents have to be high enough to still cash flow after all expenses (PITI, Mgmt, Vac’s, Rep/Maint, CapEx, HOAs, Util).Based on being “all in” $120K in order to BRRRR and still cash flow at least $300 mo:$120K cash out amount - at 7%/30 yr ($150K+ ARV)PI = $800 mo + Taxes $150 + Ins $150 = $1100mo PITIRENT would have to be at least $2000 mo- $1100 PITI- $200 mgmt (even if self mng, it’s exp for time)- $200 vacancies- $200 Rep/Maint & CapEx= $300 mo cash flow.

Owner-Builder Construction Loan (Challenging but Possible)Some lenders offer owner-builder loans, but they usually require:✅ Strong financials (good credit, assets, low debt-to-income)✅ A solid construction plan, budget, and timeline✅ Proof of prior experience (renovations help, but formal experience is a plus)✅ A licensed contractor or project manager to sign off on the build2.

Most of the time, quality is sacrificed. 

Start with durable, high-quality basics: plush towels, soft linens, and a fully stocked kitchen with sharp knives, pans, and essentials like oil and spices.

Being the highest quality locaitons in all of MS or at least central MS you get the very best tenants.. then my office staff handled the monthly collections.. so hybrid.

City proper has been on 5 year bear market completely unrelated to anything political, the suburbs have been adding inventory since the summer but are still very low but any measure and have actually gotten tighter the last few month, while I am open to the idea these cuts could eventually have some effect on the market, about 20% of the dc area is federal employees, let’s say the federal government cut the work force 25% which would be huge, that’s 5% of the population, but a good number of those people are either two income households where one person works in the private and/or the person being laid can go get a similar job in the provide sector l, the percentage of households who would be forced to sell thier house over this is likely in very low single digits.

My point is that there are plenty of motivated participants at this price point even if the gross commission is low.  

HUD loans will take drastically longer (I've never used one personally), but there can be benefits to using these loans if you're a long-term owner.The interest rates in your Key Considerations seem very low for agency loans and they're definitely low for bridge loans. 

I've also assumed VA loans where little cash was used (seller had low/no equity).
