Decided that wouldn't snowball fast enough to retire substantially early so we started to BRRRR.2. 3 Years, although 90% of our investing activity has happened in the last 14 months.3.

BRRRR is still possible in OKC, (it’s actually easy here, but I’m assuming you are referring to a perfect $0 cash-left-in BRRRR, which is more challenging for sure).We’ve got a nice stable market with lots to appreciate, but I’d put most of our wholesalers on a different list than “things to appreciate about OKC” . . .

The current owners recently retired and want to move out of state and are looking to transfer the mortgage vice selling the property.

Would like have to continue working full time.PLAN 2: - Follow the 'Fi' community and invest everything into a total stock market index fund through my 401k with the intent of taking equal separate draws to retire somewhat early. - Do not invest in real-estate, unless using equity of own home to purchase additional onesBenefit: Easier to cash out that real-estate.

These two resources have really taught me more about finances and investing than I have ever been exposed to and changed my mindset about retirement.  

A sale, may or may not create taxable income depending on the basis of the property and whether they utilize 1031 exchange to roll proceeds into another property.In general, REITs are stable consistent dividend yielding investment instruments.

However , it really depends on the location and how desperate you are to rent it. ideally , I prefer a stable family who will stay and not have many life changes , as college grads do. 

I’d like to retire from my education job, and have my rentals pay better than my retirement.

@Heath JonesMoving funds from a TSP to a qualified retirement plan such as a Solo 401k is allowed.

They offer great returns and allow you to achieve steady cash-flow and build a stable rental portfolio.
