Hi @Gary Mano My husband and I are under contract on a house in Meadowmont in Arnold too.

My mother originally agreed for me to refi some money out of the equity of a house we co own but then she changed my mind after I signed the contract on the guesthouse.  

With the flip we sold last year, everyone I showed the house to when selling pointed out the unique things of the house.

As far as PadSplit, you'll have to check city and county laws concerning the number of unrelated people allowed to live in a house.

BUT....They just canceled my policy because the property had cloth-covered wiring (like most 1951 houses do). 

@Alex Saidenstat what are the odds you'll get a 12 month performing tenant in a $65k house?

Over the next year, a modest 0.8% decrease is projected, indicating a potential cooling of the market.Norada Real EstateDespite high housing costs contributing to population shifts, the Portland real estate market remains resilient.

A HOUSE BOAT?
