Petersburg for over 30 years, I can attest that the last two big hurricanes caused significant damage, but they were the first in a long time.Condos and townhomes tend to perform well, especially if they're located on the Intracoastal Waterway or within 3-5 miles of the beaches.

Quote from @Jay Hinrichs: Oregon finally passed legislation to reel in unlicensed wholesaling its in this months publication from the state RE agency.Highlights:Goes into effect  July 1 2025Requires:On line application to become a licensed wholesaler  ( RE agents exempt from this of course they already have licenses)Name of company and individuals who will be performing these services.Each one needs a full criminal background check and approval prior to receiving the license.300.00 annual fee for the license.Written Disclosures in Bold 10 point.These must be given to Buyer and Sellers prior to entering into a wholesale contract and signed for.Also RE brokers assisting wholesalers need to give these to potential buyers and sellers.

If you are using a third-party site to conduct the background checks, sometimes they have the option to send a person, a denial letter, and due to the fair credit act it may be required to send them a notice, informing them that you checked their credit and background so that they have a receipt that it was completed.

When a tenant moves out, transfer the deposit back to Checking so it's ready to apply towards expenses or refund the Tenant.If you end up with excess funds in the Checking account, I recommend you transfer it to a third account designated explicitly for future investments.

We now have two homes and are looking into our third.
