“As much as possible” is a negotiation tactic, but early signals suggest another $100 million round is genuinely in play.

Looking around online, it seems many have touched on the following options in their situations:1.

Hi everyone,I’m closing on a single-family rental in Moore, Oklahoma, and comparing two types of property management:1️⃣ Local PM (Hallmark Property Management)10+ years in business, 4.6★ from ~70 reviews~430 doors managed; solid local presenceOwner is a local investor/builderKeeps full deposit & 100% of late feesRent estimate: $1,930/mo (Zillow shows ~$2,000)My projected cash flow: –$25/monthThey mentioned a winter slowdown as reason for conservative rent pricing2️⃣ “New-Age” Digital PM Models (like Nomad)Offer Guaranteed Rent and home protection (~$500K)4–6% management fee, lower than traditional PMsNo first-month leasing feeFully online platform for rent collection, screening, etc.I live in California, so I’d handle showings/inspections with digital locks or local helpThese newer PMs would save me roughly 6% compared to Hallmark, but I don’t have much PM experience yet.Questions for the group:Has anyone here used tech-based PMs like Nomad, Doorstead, or Belong in OKC/Moore/Norman?

I wanted to ask — who's really playing games here?

Large lots, green space for a play area, large sheds for extra storage, an outbuilding with a full size washer and dryer, ample room to park a couple cars at each lot, fenced, street lamps at each lot, gated entry for security and privacy, community mail box, etc. etc. 

Excited to see how things play out for you and looking forward to hearing updates as you work toward that $50k goal.

And you’re right, different investors handle leverage differently depending on their strategy and market.What I shared earlier was just based on what I’m actually seeing play out here in the Triad (Greensboro / Winston-Salem / High Point).

Curious — are you thinking about Palatka as a buy-and-hold play, or more of a fix-and-flip strategy?

I had intentionally transitioned into real estate & business in the Oklahoma City metro at the end of 2019 after stumbling in the industry after one of Robert Kiyosaki’s books & online educational material.
