Pacific NW Retirement real estate purchase

Howdy BP community,

I'm helping my parents navigate a retirement real estate purchase, as they look to flee the scorching summers of Texas (also apparently winter-storm-ravaged at this point). Right now they are considering the Pacific NW area around Portland OR and Vancouver WA. I'd love to hear form local area experts:

  • What should they be looking for?
  • What should they look out for?
  • Areas to consider or avoid?

Their list of requirements is pretty specific and includes a preference for Single-family energy efficient, sustainable, and green built properties near small towns with big personality & culture. B-)

Thanks for any assistance you can provide!
