assuming all financial factors are the same, including number of units and physical condition, would you prefer a rental on a busy or quite street?

Hello!

I agree with paul on the REIA idea. NWREIA is a pretty good group with meeting allover the metro area. There's at least 1 other than has been mentioned but i cant recall what its called at the moment.

Howdy, honestly with your past business experience you may have a smoother time getting started than most people. Good luck man!

How much does you company lend? 70% ARV, 100% Market, 89% appraised?

welcome, 

I am  80 miles east of you in The Dalles. From what I've seen Oregon and Eastern Washington seem to have decent sized investor communities.  Portland itself has the NWREIA with several helpful members. I was a member until I started trucking and put everything else on hold in my life.

sense it seems like I will be focusing on small cities and towns, I thought it may be a good idea to get an idea of how well a community could survive another financial upset. I am thinking that two prime indicators would be house sales/foreclosure and employment rates. Can you think of anything else?

lets say you are given a private loan for (x) amount. Would there be any restrictions on how often you can use this kind of financing? Must the lender be accredited? Do they have restrictions on how often they can lend their money and how much? I am talking about in general, but if you know about specific states, please tell.

because I have a 1 year lease in The Dalles. Tried to get a local trucking job but got fired. Going to try for another 2 local jobs. If I can't get them, its back to Portland in july when my lease is up.
