I did the exact same thing 5 years ago except it was a single family and I rented the rooms out to friends, now my wife and I have built a portfolio of 10 homes.

At the same time, using those resources strategically now could help you build momentum for your own portfolio faster.

Many companies have left the state entirely.Insurance is a simple math game. 

We've had this note in our portfolio for about 5 years which was sub-performing at best when we bought it, got it back re-performing again and been paying like clockwork since. 

This is home for us, and our portfolio is based here.

Now I have sold Smokies properties in the past to 1031 into other investment properties to diversify my portfolio and some are selling for other "better for them investments". 

In order to pay off the gap lender you'll have to be able to create some equity and pull it out, from that property or another in your portfolio.

A cash purchase, added to my portfolio, reduces my levergage ratio on my real estate portfolio, but does not bring it to zero of course as I am not paying off existing low rate mortgages on rentals. 

Purchase price: $62,950 Cash invested: $45,000 Single family home with all the Capex updated making this home a great place for an first time home buyer or someone looking to optimize there portfolio.

Well, Oregon can feel like an entirely different ball game.. especially if you’re used to simpler markets like Arizona or Texas.
