This negative position can consume years of cash flow to recover.

I am a real estate broker, and homes that I have sold to investors have large down payments or cash.

I'm considering purchasing a multi-family property in Norman, Oklahoma City, primarily because of the nearby colleges and universities that provide rental opportunities.

However, considering gross monthly income and operational expenses, I'm looking for strategies or types of properties that can provide a better net ROI.Here are some key points:Location: At least a C neighborhood that is safe for driving around at all hours.Cashflow: Investments that can deliver superior cash flow.Involvement: I have the time and willingness to handle maintenance and operational activities myself.

I like starting in the Midwest because it's affordable and offers good cash flow. 

Endoto is the best in class provider, though batchleads is also great! 

If you're using all cash then obviously that's not an issue.Another thing to consider is if the land has deed restrictions, checking on the city website or MLS would be your best bet there.I'd love to learn more about what you're trying to do and maybe be able to help answer any questions you might have!

Fully rented, it would cash flow very well.

Turnkey providers can range from terrible to great. 

@Ryan DaultonIt sounds like a conversation with your IRA plan provider is in order.Perhaps this will help.
