But as Chris mentioned, buyer has to own the property, not a contract for deed or something like that.

I was wondering if you could share the contractors’info you were mentioning?

As mentioned in a previous comment, REIAGC a non-profit, and everything is primarily run by volunteers (including the Board of Directors), and has been so for over 20 years. 

@Heath Sizick Sorry, forgot to mention you in my response! 

The factors you mentioned are very important to keep in mind for any investment, but I like investing in areas I know. 

Some high and lowlights:- I had one tenant that brought German cockroaches in and then blamed it on me- Same tenant asking if her daughter can visit but failed to mention it was 5 more very noisy people- another tenant having constant loud arguments with his gf- tenant saved some of my stuff when the house flooded due to a pipe burst and another time during a monster rain storm.

Quote from @Hanna Brown: @Jay Hinrichs  You mentioned Oregon and WA made foreclosure rescue lease backs totally illegal.

I heard you mention that you worry about Tenant placement after the medical resource you have now dries up. 

I should also mention we shut off the breaker (to the garage) after confirmation from two electricians and our contractor that we had a serious fire risk.   

I think you are doing some things that are not required.You didn't need the LLC to start off with.You don't need to build a websiteYou mentioned needing to work on your credit score.
