Thanks you two! I see in greater Portland prices trending down fast. Something for me to think about.

How do you all feel about the rent control situation in Oregon overall? We see great buys there but have been leary of stepping over the Oregon / Washinton board (We are in Vancouver, WA). We were even interested in buying in my old back yard (central valley of CA) but with rent control - it has got us holding a lot of cash in the bank. We don't know how 'rent control' laws are going to affect WA, OR and CA. We think of NY, slumlords, cap on rent increases, etc when We think rent control. Thanks for your input in advance!

@Amber Linthakhan Hi, I'm from Vancouver WA. I feel the same as you do about the up pricing that out of stater have been having on property values here. But the market is softening a bit. I don't know if it will soften more. I'm originally from Fresno CA and Costa Mesa, CA. I'm considering Fresno. But I'm focusing here in Vancouver first. We are currently looking for our second house which will be our primary. The one we live in will become a rental or Air BnB. Anytime you have a question please feel free to reach out. I am very new to this as well. I'm even considering getting my real estate license just to have access to the MLS (not to sell properties for others.) I thought once I get my license I can talk to a Managing Broker and pay them monthly for access. We'll see. Glad you joined. Let's stay in touch.

My husband and I will be inheriting a nice sum of money soon. We watch youtube videos on BRRRR, Flipping, Wholesaling, Subject to blah, blah, blah. We've read books on BRRRR, Landlording, Estimating, etc. After dousing ourselves in 'knowledge' we feel overwhelmed. AND we feel we missed the boat due to our age. Out of shape, broken bodies (LOL) we can't do a lot of what you 'youngin's' are doing. I'd like to hear about people our age starting out or who have been doing this for a couple of years. Anyone our age just starting this type of investing?
