The scope/work you were mentioning about just insulating, finishing, and making it nice would definitely be permitted, as long as the City doesn't decide to come back with a comment saying "Our records indicat this porch is an Open porch, please provide existing photographs"...

And let's not forget the ecosystem that supports this—realtors, property managers, cleaners, photographers, stagers, etc.Let's keep this conversation going.

As a longtime proponent of the Portland neighborhood, I believe the proximity to the business district is a huge appeal to Millennials and Gen Z buyers.https://drive.google.com/file/d/1d8JoLfs6Vh7b8wTLRN-DLkjmyjk...

How are tax appeals handled for the building, and when was the last time they were appealed?

You can still get into the middle ground here for under 300k which is appealing.

haha Eric,We go way back with our uncivilized approach mate lolI remember he even had an Aussie realtor to compete with my Aussie sex appeal back in the day.

The majority of wholesalers are no good, and even with the MLS, it is difficult to come across a property with an appealing profit margin.

Other strategies such as fix and flip or house hacking don't really appeal to me as constantly seeking out opportunities in hopes of generating large amounts of cash is not a part of my nature.Also, your local REIA will be an awesome resource for you.

The appealing aspect here is the ongoing population growth and other economic factors.

Another appealing aspect of this property is that it includes a house currently occupied by an older couple.One major issue is that the house and the neighboring property share a well.
