Portland OR market

[Brandon Luke]

My wife and I are strongly considering a move from central Washington to Portland Oregon. Our ability to invest in the area is going to be a major factor in whether or not we move. Is there anyone who can give me a general run down of the market over there? We'd like to flip homes that would sell in the $140-200 range, and buy and hold duplexes-quads. Any guidance would be appreciated!

Hey Brandon -I don't know what your threshold is for your upfront purchase price but don't be discouraged if you like Portland you can still find deals - but not typically on RMLS.  I purchased a home in a SE suburb from a great wholesaler to flip for $150k.  You just have to network and find the guys who are really truly good wholesalers.  It took me about six months of concerted effort to find a handful of these guys.  Best Wishes.  Lisa
