Looking for a reputable brokerage in the Portland/Scappoose/St Helens area.

Another aspect to consider is because you don't just need to find a few tenants, you may want to buy a healthy business vs one that has gained a bad reputation over the past number of years.In summary, I think a car wash business could meet many of the needs you are looking for, and if cashflow isn't a huge priority, you may be able to find a couple people who could do much of the day to day aspects of the business and it could become pretty passive much like a property management company can make an apartment building passive. 

All this can be very daunting, but remember you want to be ahead of the game before you start.Your reputation can make or brake you.
