Thank you all for the help! I appreciate the advise. Thankfully we are at the early stages of the sale and aren't near closing, so notices can be given. I'll be meeting with the attorney on Monday.

Hi all, I've got an interesting scenario that I wanted to throw on the forums. I will be consulting with an attorney, but just curious if any other sellers have had this issue. A property owner has an old lease that expired months ago, but the tenants have decided to stay there without renewing or paying. The property owner has sold the property to another investor. Will this new investor have any rights to the home? If they don't accept "cash for keys," any idea for a non-legal route? Besides consulting a lawyer, what advice could you give for this situation? Thank you for the time. I hope others can get value from these responses.

I am currently in the hunt for list categories such as tax-delinquent, pre-foreclosure, foreclosure, divorce, probate, and utility delinquent. I have called to my local county clerk and county clerk. They weren't knowledgeable in how to obtain any of these lists. I have looked into various city websites to find any online databases, but couldn't come up with anything. I looked through the RCW 42.56 Exempt Records of Washington to see if anything falls into the exemption. I'm not able to find it; am I looking in the wrong place or are these documents protected in the state of Washington? Thanks for the suggestions.

The college housing can be a profitable niche, just like any other strategy if the correct systems are in place. Personally, I won't be getting into those markets, since the turnover rate can restrict both financial and time wealth. Yet, there certainly are many people that have made it profitable!

Hi Diskin! I hope Colton and the family are well. I used to live out at Sandy Point and still have family that does. I have considered the other surrounding markets, but I think for my first one it would be best if I stick to a market that I know best in Ferndale. Then, after one is under my belt I'd love to look into both Lynden and Blaine. I will keep you in the loop for the multi-family. Are there any local meetups? Both Hunter Crim and I have this accountability partnership and we have been trying to find a group. I'll be in touch!

It truly is a beautiful area! So many outdoor activity options. The prices certainly are higher, but as you know, like in any market there are always deals to be found. It's those that put in the work will uncover those treasures.

Hi Kim, WWU is an excellent investment opportunity. There are so many possible options here in Whatcom County, it is tough having to choose one investment strategy. I will be sure to reach out if anything comes up, thank you!

Hi there!

My name is Dane Larsen and I'm from a town outside of Bellingham in the northwest corner of Washington State. My primary personal goal is to build a portfolio of ten long term rentals, allowing me to take more calculated risks in my business. I am currently in the search for a home that would allow me to house hack for a year. I'm currently using my direct mailing system to reach out to a variety of local owners. Also, I am constantly reaching out to people in the industry up here in Whatcom County. Lastly, I scan the MLS daily and analyze potential deals that fit my criteria.

I hope to use the systems that I’ve developed to help bring deals in an appreciating market to those that are outside the local area. If I can be the investor on the ground that helps provide a deal to benefit someone that isn’t familiar with the market, then I’d consider myself a happy man. Hopefully one day, I will be able to do business with you to diversify your portfolio in my local area!
