It's been great living there, but it is a cottage and very small.

he would sell if you wanted to buy he would lease option if you wanted to do that or he would rent.. he owned quite a few homes in the order or 500 or so.. which for the PDX metro area is a LOT  of SFR s in one ownership... in other parts of the country were exisiting SFR s are cheaper than building new there are plenty of owners with hundreds of SFR's  its a cottage industry

So for example, this property would be a good deal, 100k valued house after repairs * .70 = 70k - 10k repairs - 10k assignment fee, your max offer is 50k, than you re-assign for 60k, you just made 10k, the seller owes 40k on the property, you put it under contract for 50k, so the seller is happy, gets loan paid off, plus gets 10k, you get 10k, and the investor gets the rest of the cheese.

He's done some minor modifications, whereas I did a more intensive rehab on my small cottage before renting it out.

This new project is one that I am really excited about because (if everything goes well) it will involve creating a duplex out of a single family home, subdividing a lot within the city of Grand Junction and then new construction of affordable (read as tiny) cottages.

LOL, I'm going to split the difference between Bill S and Steve, and say that is neither Victorian nor Craftsman/Arts&Crafts, but is an Edwardian era workman's cottage.  

There are a large number of houses here that have in-law suites (guest houses, cottages, etc.) behind them.

Hi AllI'm new to this forum and trying to get some information about short term rental market in Mont-Tremblant, Quebec.Plan is to buy a land within 30 minutes from Mont-Tremblant ski resort and build a high end contemporary two bedroom cottage to rent it short term on platforms such as Airbnb.I'm not from Canada and never been to Montreal, I'll travel to Montreal end of this month to choose a land.I did my research, had a look at lands on realtor.com and I found big variation in prices (acre from 40k to 1 million), were obviously lake front, those where short term rental allowed and lands closer to the ski resort are the expensive ones but I think there're other justifications for the big variation in price which I'm not aware of. 

There's a cottage on Lake Michigan we go to each year done completely in pine car siding and decking.
