@Mindy Jensen dang! I wish I had stayed glued to the events calendar! Would've loved to meet up and share stories/ideas! I love your and Scott's podcast (of course also love Brandon and Josh's!)

Hope the Portlandian's treated you well! 

Thanks Viktor, sorry, I glazed over the heading and jumped straight to the body! Got the address now

Hi Viktor,

I'm interested in doing some research on this property. What is the address?

I'd like to attend as well! I need to touch base with my wife and 6-month old son, but I would love to meet up with fellow BP'ers! @Jacob Wathen

Well done, @Omid A. ! My wife and I actually just moved from Tigard to Lake Oswego! I have been aggressively (as aggressive as you can with a full-time W2 and a baby boy) searching the Portland market for deals. I'm glad to see that there are good deals out there such as this one!

How did you end up finding the wholesaler that you worked with on this one?

Hey Everyone!

I am in the process of forming a "Lease Option" contract for a few tenants that I have in my rental property and would like to have a Real Estate Attorney review the terms prior to making into a contract.

Does anyone have good referrals for a Real Estate attorney in the Portland market?

Thank you,

Found on BP! Thanks Janel

I am interested in learning more about this property. Shoot me a PM if still available

Hi @Logan Ems

It appears that this property has already gone pending; is that so?

Thanks everyone for the responses!

@Steve B. - Great suggestions. I feel that I have a good team that will be able to find some deals. In fact, I just found a pre-forclosure home on the Historical Society in Tualatin that may be a shot for good returns on a flip or even a cash-flowing property. I like @Jay Hinrichs suggestion of looking in outlying areas, as well. I have limited my geographic region due to needing to stay within a 15 min. drive of my W-2 job in Tualatin. Its a catch-22: W-2 Job provides the consistent cash flow, yet restrains my ability to properly get into the REI business. I don't have the cash reserves to get into development (I think), and feel that a good SFH rehab would be a great intro to the business.

Above all, I feel that as long as I'm thinking positively and surround myself with good people with sound advice (through BP, of course) I will get into this business.
