Questions about the Bend/Redmond, Oregon Market

[Todd Jackson]

Looking for some assistance from a Agent or Property Manager in the Bend/Redomond area.  

I am an investor in Florida who will be eventually looking to move to the Bend/Redmond area and I have some questions about the market in the area.  My plan is to possibly purchase a property and rent it out to pay down the mortgage before we move in several or more years.  I am looking at the larger lots (5 or so acres) a little out from the cities central. I want to know if these higher end homes would rent and what would the market call for.  I am looking for a house with one of those awesome Cascade/Smith Rock views.  

Thanks in advance for any advice.
