New Guy in OKC

[Nathan Miller]

Hey everyone, new here. Looking to get a strategy developed for real estate investing. Would like to start in syndicate investing and then leverage profits to start on mid-to-long-term rentals locally.

Hey Nathan, welcome to the crew and congrats on taking the first step! Your plan makes total sense. Starting with syndications is a smart way to get exposure while learning the ropes more passively. Just remember the illiquidity, your capital may be tied up for years, so be extra choosy and weigh the trust factors carefully. Vet sponsors hard: track record across cycles, fee structure, downside scenarios, investor communications, skin in the game, and third-party references.

Leveraging those gains into local rentals (especially mid-to-long-term) is a great next move and gives you more hands-on control. Definitely dive into the Syndication and Landlording forums here, lots of free, battle-tested advice from people who’ve walked that exact path.

How’s your OKC market knowledge so far: neighborhoods, employer base, rent-to-income ratios, and supply pipeline? 

Excited to follow your progress!
