There are a ton of duplexes in and around College Avenue. 

I would never form an entity with them when I can do it online with a firm that charges a fraction of what they charge).

Think basic, durable furniture that looks good but can withstand college life.4.

To me a house hack will most likely work in Tulsa - I haven't done any research on that area, but as far as I know it's not a crazy market like places in California etc.Also read a lot, get some books from your local library or purchase some online.

One of my clients just built a new home in Los Altos hills really cool bout 4500 sq ft modern and he is in it over  6 mil just build cost.. young guy late 30s has some sort of on line something. 

@Jerry Zigounakisi'd pick a market close to you, or one you have strong ties in, rather than trying to get to one via math.can you invest where you live, or 1-2 hours from where you live, or where you like to vacation, or where you went to college, or where you plan to move someday?

The answers to most of your questions can be found just by searching in BP or online. 

Begin by educating yourself through books like The House Hacking Strategy and podcasts like BiggerPockets, and join online communities for support.

Yes, there's a lot of information online, but nothing replaces and EXPERIENCED honorable agent.A seller whose listing expired with a different agent/firm is now my client; the other agent was from a town 45 minutes away from the flip property....the listing expired. 

Personally, I bought a 3 bed single family home soon after starting my job and had two friends from college rent which covered my mortgage plus a little extra.
