Hey Gavin, great question.Tariffs can certainly impact the economy, but real estate markets tend to respond in more nuanced ways depending on location, supply-demand dynamics, and investor sentiment rather than broad, immediate declines.A few things to consider:Local Market Fundamentals – Instead of assuming a market-wide drop, look at how tariffs might specifically affect your market in Beaverton, OR.

Our goal is to find a property in a stable, tenant-friendly market with minimal renovations needed, preferably one that already has tenants in place. 

It gives you one property that can potentially pay for itself while putting a roof over your head and giving you experience as a hands-on landlord.

Some markets to check out: Lake Tahoe (high demand but strict permits), Sonoma/Napa (wine tourism, tight restrictions), Gold Country (lower buy-in, seasonal demand), and Mendocino Coast (beautiful but limited STRs).SoCal spots like Big Bear and Joshua Tree tend to be more STR-friendly.

(Off-market Deals, Lending, etc.) 

Find that out and collect your data from there and you will immediately put yourself in front of any PS, Propwire, Batchleads and in most cases Property Radar customer.What are your target markets?

Is there way to direct market to these types of individuals?
