having spent a decade in the timber business in Oregon I call it Oregon porch time.. these are not inner city dwellers these are folks that you need to sit with and talk  have coffee and build reporte'if the homes are nice and clean and saleable probably tough to buy under market unless your good at looking someone straight in the face and telling them their 300k home is only worth 200k.. that is a moral issue.Also be aware that you CANNOT legally sell a home you are not in title to in Oregon.. its selling real estate with out license and don't listen to all the people from all over the country that wholesale.. many states its an accepted practice in Oregon it is not.Also if your flipping homes IE coming into title you also need a developers license in Oregon  talk to @Karen Margrave she just got an education on this.. the state is cracking down on flippers.. its a 5k fine.. usually 1k first time. 

Hi Wendy, those sites that say "We Buy Houses" are actually wholesalers as well and if you get a good enough deal they could buy it from you but it would have to be really amazing to have enough margin for both you and the other wholesaler.

I had a tenant move out last week and the living room carpet is stained beyond cleaning and need to be replaced.

So if any of you know a good lender please send them my way.I love BP and all of the information the site provides!

I have a few questions surrounding rehab process for first time investors that I am sure will be helpful for a lot of individuals across the site!

@Joanne Tsai did you consider the possibility that the house is dirty and needs to be cleaned?

I currently rent in San Diego and I pay my rent to a property management group, however, I am assigned a property manager (not on-site) that I can contact if I have questions.

You can contact them, but they’re not going to sell it to you....at some point they will put it on the mls or one of the REO auction sites.  

Idk how to screen out the person with a clean background, but associates with questionable people.
