I've been burned renting to friends, leasing rentals to friends doesnt end well. 

(Except something like 1/2 of a duplex where the rental 1/2 is worth as much as your exchange.).

(If it were mine I would try something like this)Are you seeking an alcohol free environment to live in?

I like that plan!

@David Matarazzo  It looks like they do equipment financing. 

Like my title says, I am a dentist in the Kansas City area and am looking at real estate to be my retirement plan.

If you have a lot of family in OK, that can be a great place to start assessing since you have dedicated boots on the ground, as well as a reason to visit.Don't overthink the analyzing of markets when you are still figuring things out.

We talked about an aggressive paydown at a rate of $5k for the next 6 months to make the deal sweeter for the next person, but renting it would be preferable to that I believe since I can get a higher return on smaller development projects at a burn rate like that. 

Like someone else said very well, invest inopportunities, not in a particularasset or strategy.

Rentrange uses data from large property management companies just like mine.
