Again, some interesting thought but no concrete evidence that the buying is better at one end or the other.I will say this - it is MUCH easier to fish in the Absentee Pond than the Owner Occupied Pond.

Most of them wanted to resell on the secondary market or evidently didn't wanna hold a relatively small valued sfr in their portfolio...

Insurance companies always ask for a lease to show evidence of actual income that you were expecting.

I have seen no evidence multnomah is actively enforcing any of this.  

@Imran Ahmed@Imran Ahmed Good day,I love working with out of state investors and once they are pre-qualified or provide “evidence of funds” which I do not require until we present an offer, you are good as gold!

I have photographic evidence taken during construction showing where they dug up the floors and placed every pier.  

But no one shows actual evidence like I did.

Next would be a signed contract that you write up yourself which will have a paper trail and evidence backing any claims in court (bonus points if you go to a notary and have it done in front of an official) and the best option is the lawyer which will stand up in court significantly better than anything you could write yourself.

After all, would you loan money to you and your friends if there was no verifiable evidence of the ability to repay and put your capital at risk?

Otherwise, all I would need is photo evidence that there is a new tenant, and I am free from the contract.
