Janis A. Oregon's New Rent Control

They can give 30 days' notice if a sale similar to the earlier described is in the works.Tenants can still be evicted for cause; if, for example, they fail to pay rent or deliberately damage the unit.Rent increases limitedLandlords can only raise rents once a year for tenants, and when they do, rent increases are capped at 7 percent plus the yearly change in the consumer price index.The 7-percent plus CPI cap gives property managers wide latitude in raising rents each year, according to a Statesman Journal analysis.For instance, only once in the past decade have average rents for a 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment built before 1990 in the Salem-Keizer area surpassed the cap adopted under SB 608, housing data shows.Properties built in the past 15 years are exempt from the 7 percent plus CPI limit, as are properties where landlords give reduced rents because of government subsidies or programs.The rules say landlords also have to adhere to the 7 percent plus CPI cap if they evict a resident without cause with 30 days' notice or serve an eviction notice within the first year of occupancy.Basically, landlords aren't allowed to evict tenants without cause and 30 days' notice just so they can raise rents past the limit.Landlords with four or fewer units still have to abide by the rent caps, according to Danny Moran, a spokesman for House Speaker Tina Kotek, D-Portland.The bill isn't just geared toward apartments; single-family rental homes are also affected."

Alexander Jansen Active Duty Real Estate Investing (Long)

Not only would I love to know thoughts on the new tax bill and property ownership, but just the profitability in general when it comes to PITI and then tax returns (I pay no state taxes on income thanks to FL residence).Would love any insight on how to make either a reality (or to be dissuaded and brought back to reality lol)As always, I really appreciate the attention to detail and deliberate effort this forum goes to in order to provide guidance.

(Directly meaning, buying low and selling high, either deliberately or accidentally/luckily, and cashing out; indirectly meaning, more or less the same thing but instead of taking the cash, doing a 1031 exchange - or paying the taxes and waiting for the next trough - and using that appreciation to get more units so that the meager cash flow actually adds up.)With a few exceptions, the Northeast suffers from aging housing stock, tenant-oriented landlord-tenant laws (the prospect of rent control is raised regularly here), high taxes, and generally nothing amazing happening economically (possible exceptions to this: NYC and maybe Boston), at least compared to some other areas of the country (e.g., Texas and Florida).I think if you're not tied to a particular area, or willing to invest out of state and really do research and stay on top of your investments, it can make a huge difference in your financial future to explore where economic trends are really in your favor (sometimes called "emerging markets").They say it in the stock market and I think it's true of real estate too, "the trend is your friend" - as long as you're not catching the very end of it, I think it's (appreciation is) a huge factor in real estate success.
