Hello Everyone,

There have been news reports that the air in SE Portland is toxic.

How long and how bad do you all think this will effect the properties values in SE Portland? Here's a link to the news article and a quote from it.

"The state Department of Environmental Quality and the Oregon Health Authority plan to announce that DEQ data indicate a monthly average of 49 times the state air-safety benchmark level for the neurotoxin and carcinogen cadmium, and 159 times DEQ's air-safety goal for the carcinogen arsenic."

Hello Everyone,

I've been thinking about what and how I can get involved with real estate without quiting my current career as an engineer.

I've come to a conclusion that I'd like to dig into Passive Income Investing. There are tons of people out there that have years and years of experience in flipping houses, managing rental properties, etc. So I figured that could help raise the capital and let the veterans do what they love.

Is there any real estate investors in or around Portland, OR that is willing to teach me? Like how to start, where to start, the process, etc.

I really look forward to hearing you all.

Thank you for the welcomes.

I currently live in Portland and I would like to start off local. That's just to start off. Maybe in the future I can expand to other parts of Oregon. Maybe to Vancouver, WA too. 

I was think of starting with single family housing. I'm far from pulling the trigger on a REI career. Just trying to learn as much as possible and maybe sometime in the near future I can make a move.

Unless of course I find a deal that I can't pass up!

Anyone have recommendations on general contractors in Portland, OR?

Hello Everyone,

I'm 25 and I'm very interested in getting into the real estate game. I'm reading and learning as much as possible to get up enough courage to jump in and work towards my financial freedom. Any advise or helping I can get, past experiences, how you started, etc. would be very much appreciated. Look forward to soaking up as much information as possible.

Best Regards,
