@Jay Hinrichs do you see or have you heard if this affects remodels to either the interior or exterior?

I'm looking at purchasing a 60''s fixer and might change the interior floor plan at some point.

It looks like it only addresses complete demos. SB871 correct?

Thanks for the heads up! Good looking out.

Great advice, Steve! That is where I am leaning toward's especially since I have the VA available meaning I can keep my cash on hand for some form of investment when I find it.

Greetings All!

Finally getting around to an intro and using the web site and forums more.

About 2 years ago I listened to a few dozen podcasts as a way to learn more about the possibility of investing in real estate (fix and flips or rentals). Before I pulled the trigger on anything we moved from Columbus, GA to the most expensive city in Oregon (Lake Oswego, $400K gets you 1,000 SF fixer here). So I am leaning towards limiting my RE investing goals for the moment to trying to simply find a home for the family. So I am here to refresh my RE knowledge and come up with a plan. Any and all advice is welcome.

Thanks everyone for your time in helping others on the forums, BP is a great resource! Such a wealth of knowledge here.

All the Best,

P.S. I have the VA loan available but was interested in finding a good investment as well, so curious if anyone has had any luck with foreclosures or pre-foreclosures meeting the VA/FHA guidelines, and the best way to find them (Property Radar or similar app? Thanks again!
