@Bjorn Ahlblad Thanks for the reply! I’ve been hearing a lot of that lately it would seem the only way around that is to be as careful as possible with tenants, is there any other reasons why you don’t like Washington state as a landlord? 

Hello everyone! Like the title says I'm looking for some help along the way! My names Colby and I'm 23 years old, I work in the wildfire industry catering mobile laundry trailers and shower trailers for the firefighters. I'm looking to get into the real estate investment world and I'm looking for some help just some guidance, I've been reading a lot of books and really like the idea of the BRRRR method. I would love my first rental to be in Washington state because that's where I live. Thank you for reading and don't hesitate with any questions.

@Steve Vaughan Ok! Sounds good! Thank you for replying! 

I am looking at a duplex the owner is willing to finance with 10% down and carry the loan for 6 months for a balloon payment my plan will be to rehab the units and property then rent it and refinance it. My question is what do you need to refinance I don’t have a stable job I work seasonally but I have enough for the down payment and to pay for rehab and other unforeseen expenses. Im just wondering is there certain criteria to refinance? Thank you!

@Bjorn Ahlblad thank you for your reply! Where do you go to join the group you mentioned? What exactly is an LL? 

@Steve Vaughan Thank you for your reply! I feel the same way as you I like the idea of my rental properties being only a couple hours drive from where I live! I would love to chat with you more on the tenant friendly policies! I sent you a message! Please let me know if you have time to chat! 

@Account Closed Thank you for your reply! And your insight for knowledgeable people in my area! It’s nice to hear the reasoning why Seattle is not a good area to invest.
