The jobs growth, outside (foreign and domestic) investment, and ambitious new Big Picture plan (including some really cool live-work-play focused ideas) are all GREAT indicators.

For example - You acquire a NPN note in $60K while the UPB is $120K.If you insure per UPB, does it matter if the house BPO is under or above water (meaning, per the example, if the BPO is $100K or $150K)?

The other issue with the septic systems was that the leach fields were dry after the inspector flowed water to them.

Hillsboro is farther and got hit and Forest Grove was awful.Beaverton is more residential and good but you will not find "hip and cool" like you do in the city.

One furnace & one water heater operate all three units. 

And of course cafes, cool restaurants, yoga and crossfit places are always good. 

I am tired of the maintenance of it and the constant sprinkler issues to repair, not to mention the water bill in our drought afficted area.

Creative financing is an alternative but there are sharks in those waters.

In an area that received 40" of rain and many homes got FEET of water, this was a good deal less.
