House hacking could possibly at least cut that painful expense so not saying you shouldn't do but really watch your numbers.

Just as I was scrambling to figure that out, one of my tenants also moved out, leaving me with thousands in repairs and a vacant unit at the worst possible time.I had zero reserves left because I had just paid back the money I borrowed to close.

I would love to know whether it is possible to apply the BRRRRR method there or other creative financing over there as a foreigners.

And there are many possible ways that can be resolved and most don't involve hiking up property taxes so high that most people can no longer afford to be a landlord. 

If I would start over, I would look to join a high producing team and learn everything  possible.

Your question about hydrostatic pressure is getting into the weeds for sure...I would ask myself, does the potential water infiltration have the possibility to damage the unit and tenant property?  

It’s subtle but constant, and I can’t seem to tune it out.I’m exploring every possible way to mitigate the sound, but the reality is that I can’t change the home’s proximity or line of sight to the roads.

To ty Coos county and Bend together brought back memories of a trip I took in the late 90s when Bandon Dunes first opened.Friend of mine in Santa Rosa has a home at Cross Water and a hanger there at the airport and of course a nice turbine twin to put in it.We departed SR for Bandon  played golf that day spent the night at  Bandon dunes  got up early  played 18 holes at Bandon again jumped into his bird flew over to Sunriver got there by 12  teed off at cross water at about 1pm and played 18 holes there.. so may one of the few 4 somes to ever play Bandon and Cross water in Sunriver on the same day  LOL..   

Talk to a CPA to see how each scenario plays out.A 401K continues to grow in value, but what do you live on? 

I had to get really creative because I wanted to use as little cash out of my pocket as possible.
