I understand moving out of your home and occupying a unit in a duplex may be the best financial decision but make sure it’s the best decision for your family because transitioning from a single family house to an apartment with a family of 4 is not always the easiest transition.

@Kyle LipkoRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

If I was in on this by myself, I would have kept up the fight and if it came down to going to court with them, I would have stood up for myself.

Bottom line, you have to decide how badly you want to own the place, and how much financial cushion you have, and how much risk you are willing to take.

I'm constantly fighting to be paid and their financial management is so poor that even when I've paid their commission invoices, they go marked as unpaid.

OKC has alot of opportunity mainly because of its low level of enforcement of housing codes, strong landlord laws and conservative judges in eviction court.

if they are pressuring you like this.PLEASE watch the American Greed Episode on Remmington Financial  .not saying these guys wont or don't fund of course.. but when I do my deals with my banks its common that I pay for the phase one and the appraiser directly..
