Great guy, very knowledgeable and experienced. 

These include accidents (I recently had 2 units destroyed by fire), natural disasters (I have had two units each hit by 2 hurricanes), property management turn over (they sell or stop being as good, I have experienced both), or turn over of team (I am turning over at handyman and I suspect plumber), or just wear n tear of property (slab leak in poor location, sewer pipes rotted out (one unit this month), roof, foundation issue, etc.).  

Any input from experienced wholesalers is much appreciated.Thanks a bunch!

Plus, they handle online rent collection (a necessity if you don't have a property manager!)

Economic Timing.According to data compiled by Marcus & Millichap[2], the Portland area has experienced three very important trends since 2010:The average price per unit for apartments has nearly doubledThe rate of employment growth rose from 2010 to 2015 but has since declined steadily, projected to be up 1% for 2020 (estimated before COVID-19)Roughly 30,000 apartments have been built since 2010, with another 5,600 units slated for construction in 2020Most RHA members have enjoyed a solid decade of price growth, rent growth and steady occupancy.

I have a few questions and points, which I'll ask below, but this is definitely a question for a NYC based real estate attorney who is educated and experienced with both evictions and rent stabilization.

Work with experienced local realtors, attend investor meetups, and use tools like Zillow, Redfin, and Rentometer to analyze potential properties.Good luck!

I could use some help finding a good intermediary and would love to hear what someone experienced/learned by going through this.
