Is this truly a new development that would need infrastructure to boot? 

However, you must have reasonable limits and hold to them.I give a great example in my book where a tenant abandoned a 2,000-square-foot home full of nice furniture, expensive jewelry, a brand-new $2,000 rifle still in the box, etc.

I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.

I am a New member to this platform but, long time listener of BP podcast.

Its not as easy but once you are up in running you are building a brand, equity in your business, and also constant flow of leads.

I'm new to the market but not new to investing and looking for wholesalers and other investors to work with.

It's all in how conservative you are in your approach to underwriting your deals.Even when a Seller says they've improved the property, the tenants are still tenants and do damage to brand new improved units. 

The new heat pump all in ones (120 instead of 240 and don’t need venting) are much better than the older all in ones.

Congrats for the new build.

I have a few brand new homes popping out of the ground in Canby Oregon.. msut of Portland proper is very old the new builds tend to be skinnies or expensive .
