I've been to OKC several times in the last 2 months and I didn't find any good deals, Did you have someone local to OKC bring you the deal since you're in Austin, TX?

It's a gamble in some ways, as I don't know if I'd be able to build what I want due to zoning.prop #2- crappy neighborhood. 1/4 acre, BUT-has a single family house, small garage, plus warehouse space that's ~2500 sq ft. zoned C. cheap. house is also a total rehab. closer to "move in ready", but honestly, the crime in the neighborhood is to the level that I don't think I'd bring my kid there now.

We purchased an investment property (single family) at the end of last year an put in lots of sweat equity, it is now bringing in about $400 a month in income. 

My question is what extra steps do I need to do to bring foreign money into the US, and what documents will I need from them?  

I currently don't have any income and I'm wondering if its realistic to pursue wholesaling to bring in some extra income so I can reduce the amount of student loans I need to take.

This will bring in the most income possible so you can save/pay off debt/fix the unit/all of the above.  

In other words, if I had 60k I could either rehab and flip 3 section 8 quality homes that bring $1,200 in cash flow compared to flipping 1 home that is bringing $300 in cash flow if I'm lucky.

I've found so far that most potential buyers/renters do not even bring up the power lines. 

3-6 months would probably bring in a tenant and allow you to rent out your apartment.

Bank has its own agenda even you want to bring bag of $100 bills with 24 hr COE.
