I'll admit, I spent the better part of one year in 2012/2013 looking at properties and putting in offers, before one finally hit and I've been off and running since. 

high interest rates have hurt cash flow and long term rentals are still a great investment... they're just not going to throw off rental income in the first few years of ownership.

The city may require more off-street parking as well.

I'm assuming I would have to pay it off if I won the house. 

Kind of piggybacking off this same notion but I have a permitted shed in the back of my duplex that would make a great studio apt. 

Before finalizing a decision to sell, I thought I’d get some thoughts from the BP forumThe only obvious factor I know to try to head off a problem is to carefully screen applicants.

Than there are off-site issues such as availability and capacity of utilities and the capacity of access roads, and on-site issues such as depth of bedrock (is it diggable or will you have to blast?)

This is the BEST $100 you will ever spend, and if you listen to Amanda Han's tax book, you'll know it's also likely a business expense for you to write off :) https://biggerpockets.supercast.com/My perfect way to learn from the BP books is to listen to the audio book through the subscription above, then books that really stand out to me I go old school and get the physical copy so that I can re-read it, take notes in the margins, and put post it notes so key points are easier for me to re-reference in the future.

I recently worked on an off-market deal here that turned into a great BRRRR success, proving how the right team and strategy can create equity and cash flow, even from a distance.If you ever need help analyzing deals or navigating the OKC market, I’d love to connect and assist however I can.

If you’re not in a rush to tap your equity, holding off until rates come down could save you money in the long run.
