., I'd definitely check out downtown OKC and the river walk.

I would walk through with your Realtor or even just bring a solid contractor with you to the primary walk through. 

@Santiago Ortega Get OFFLINE and walk some distressed properties.

Roof pitch 12/12-New shingles and edge metal $9k (plus replacing plywood where needed)-exterior painting $6k (definitely will be replacing some cedar boards here, but not clear on how many, maybe 10-15) -rebuild four stair walk up on porch $1.5k-carpet tear out and LVT (4.5mm clic, 12mil wear layer) throughout $15k-replace 40ft of cedar fence $5kLet’s assume that there are few to no surprises and the work quoted is the only work necessary.Let me know if I’m missing any info that would help.

There are tons of unfilled positions and I've never walked/driven past more "We're Hiring!"

I did this on a double and walked out with an approved permit same day.

You ALSO need to convince your current/old lender to authorize the transfer of all 7 appraisals, and voluntarily watch that business walk out the door. 

You either live it, repair it, or walk.

This is where you take a split-level home or a home with a walk-out basement and put up a wall and a kitchen/kitchenette in the basement to create two separate units.
