Natural elements...beaches, mountains, national/state parks, etc.... have always had a tourist drive to them for many many years.

Shortly after moving in, this house (built in 2006 so 18 yrs old) styarted having issues - cooktop working erratically, they replaced it with a high-end (GE Profile) new one.....Dishwasher started leaking, replaced with brand new GE Profile. 50 Gal water heater went out (elements) they replaced.So in just 6 months, they have spent about $5000 on me.

The damage to the sheet rock in the basement wasn't bad, and I set up a bunch of fans and ventilation in order to prevent mold from growing.I went to check on the first floor apartment to see if there was any damage and luckily there wasn't.

As a hard money lender who works with many investors in the Portland area, I can share some insights on maintenance costs for multifamily properties in this market, though individual experiences may vary:Lots of investors report a slight decrease in maintenance costs during winter months, bc of:- Fewer landscaping needs - Less wear and tear on HVAC systems (as heating is generally less intensive than summer cooling)- Reduced tenant turnover in winterWinter-specific issues can arise:- Potential roof repairs due to heavy rain or occasional snow- Gutter cleaning and maintenance to prevent water damage- Heating system repairs or maintenancePortland-specific factors:- The mild climate helps reduce extreme weather-related maintenance issues. - Older housing stock in some areas may require more upkeep. - Strict local regulations can also sometimes increase compliance-related maintenance costsCost-saving strategies I've seen help:- Preventative maintenance programs can help reduce overall costs obviously - Some investors report success with in-house maintenance teams for larger portfolios- Energy-efficient upgrades can help reduce utility costs in the long runYour specific costs will depend on factors like the age and condition of your properties, your management style, and the specific neighborhoods you're invested in, but hope this helps!

You can easily replace a damaged tile with peel & stick unlike regular tile or LVP. 5.

I am the process of exploring an opportunity to flip a fire damaged property.

Also be aware of the southern area near ponce, that is where the earthquakes are often felt and the most damage occurs. 

And it's not just the direct tech cost itself, it's also cost's to manage and maintain them, than to defend because as tech increases capability it does same for nefarious element (ie hackers).

If so, you have nothing at risk and you can request your EMD back and just walk away. 2) ask your realtor what the common discount is in your area for fire damaged homes if any.
