So right now our main goal is the cash flow because in the end that is the way we will be able to move up in the real estate industry. 

I know that I will need a good realtor on my team that understands not just the market but the real estate investment industry itself.

We have been around the bigger pockets community for over a decade now and have more 5 star reviews on bigger pockets than any company on this website in any industry. 

I do not think they regulate this strictly on other industries like food service, or even medical.Sounds like the mayor or city planner or someone "important" had a bad stay at a STR somewhere.

A young population plus a growing industry makes for good long term investments, but unless you are really scaling the cashflow can be hit or miss. 

I'm starting to realize that investing is something I want to consider learning for long term as I spend more time in this industry.

Not WAIT for the most popular platform in the industry to dump them all at the SAME TIME in the SAME PLACE AFTER they have been posted somewhere else first.Read my profile for further insight and  if you want the study I done I can post it here. 

Oregon coast crashed hard in the GFC   the Covid has it coming back FINALLY  but bottom line is very little industry and jobs.. since logging and fishing has curtailed .. so its retirement and tourism.
