– Considering Class A properties with established tenants• Less focus on appreciation – Prioritizing income stability over potential future gains Current Opportunity: I’m evaluating a retail property in downtown Portland with:• >80% occupancy, most tenants in place for 10+ years• Decent cap rate (6-7%), NNN lease• Well-maintained, high-quality building, with existing HOA which will take care of maintenance. 

Be patient, take action when you're ready, and don't let fear hold you back—start small, learn as you go, and build momentum over time.Good luck!

The #1 way to build a pile of money?

Housing mix will change; more condos and co-ops and multi-family apartment buildings.

Looking to rent for $175/night min and total estimate is $100k for the build, aiming for 20% CoC.Any pitfalls/advice for this uncharted territory?

Dwelling (Building coverage)The limit should be based on the Replacement Cost of the building (cost to rebuild withthe same kind and quality excluding the foundation)2.

It's exciting to see your focus on building a real estate portfolio for financial freedom!

It seems like the tenant is being respectful, following the rules, and is not being a problem so I think that is what you would tell any other tenants who ask, as long as you have seen the card.

I'd bring island out a little more. my advice is make sure all rooms are 110 sq ft minimum. some of these look super small. we build a very similar one in our market.

Assuming this is an 8 cap neighborhood you'd have a ~$420-450k value within a year (unless property taxes are crazy high) when leases would renew since it'd be valued as a commercial building with the office space.
