Hi Ian,

Sorry we couldn't keep you in the wine business! My wife and I work in the wine business and invest on the side, which has been a great way to grow a portfolio with less risk (or at least that is the idea).

Hi Joel,

Welcome to BP! Sounds like you are off to a great start.

Welcome Daniel! Are your properties in Wilsonville?

Bank of the West is who I am using at the moment.

That is awesome and congratulations!

Hi Dani,

Great work! That is the kind of deal that people who are patient in waiting for a deal but lightning fast on execution can get even in hot markets. I will send you a message on a contractor that I have been very pleased with. 

Congratulations,

Evan 

Hi Dustin,

Of your options, I would keep the house and rent it as a whole unit: less management and turnover than renting room by room. Selling to access equity is something many people do, but if you have time and patience, keeping a cash flowing property will pay off in the long term.

Amazing stuff all in one spot.

Hi Collin,

Welcome. Getting started at 25 will pay rich dividends over the long haul, wherever you invest (for the most part).

For something a little closer to home, how about McMinnville or Salem? I don't invest there personally but a quick look on Loopnet.com shows lots of multifamily listings.
