I was going to purchase my first rental property and I want to make sure I dont create a nightmare situation.  These are my HELOC terms:

Assuming an appraised value of $225,000
1st
mortgage set up at $180,000 80%...

Seeing some good opportunities in the Oklahoma City market. My question is “ is Oklahoma City market a good area to invest in?

But it also is still a work in progress.)Looking back, I’d advise myself to do my due diligence and don’t skip steps.

I'm not saying it's 100% not advisable, but there is already so much to go through just investing locally, and going out of state adds a lot of extra research/stressors/unknowns on top of that.

After talking to IRA finance group, the advise was potentially starting LLC a in those other locations and partnering with my SDIRA and then when I move creating a C Corp to umbrella them.I think I may be over Complicating the process, but I don’t want to get hit with taxes and want to protect myself and use some of my retirement investments to get going and play with my cash simultaneously Incase I can li find employment and this thing turns truly full time (tracking notes, liens, getting my broker license, etc). 

However, I would advise you to push on and prosper as you can.

I would not advise any individual stocks until you have at least $5k to $10k in Index funds.

The CPA is advising that each series must file it's own return because each of the series have myself/my wife as partners on the Company Agreement.

SHE should be talking to a professional who knows her entire situation and can properly advise her. 

I am looking for advise on steps I can take to find out if it is possible to include a 5th unit in the backyard.
