If it is to generate consistent and reliable cash flow an apartment complex in OKC is a great way to go.

What is the best way to communicate with your team and what options do I have?

@Jaysen Medhurst I appreciate the input and I probably didn’t communicate it well but I’m more looking for creative financing ideas when you have people willing to work with you, but do not have much money to put down.

I personally think it's great to take care of things yourself as a real estate investor (especially when you're starting out), it will help down the road with communication when dealing with people who you hire once you've got more valuable things to spend your time on.

Do you know what the 4 layers consist of?

Focus on 10 different methods and you won't do any of them with purpose or consistency. 

Ideally we wanted to renovate their unit, but because they paid consistently and on time we focused on the many other repairs we needed to do.

I've always planned on buying something that I can be proud of and that cash flows consistently.

Initially, you may want to make this “$0” until you are comfortable with your PM, and also layout the preferred method of communication – I suggest written so there is a paper trail.

It's a digital checklist that walks the inspector through the process for consistency.
