At the end of the day and after the final refi and the hard money lender is paid back I walk away with a finished property w/ a tenant and I only put about 10-12% down total including all closing costs have a tenant in place - left about 20-25% equity in property, it is cash flowing over 10% and I did none of the work.

I am 20 years old and currently live in Bellingham, WA, but I will be moving to Ellensburg, WA to finish up my schooling this coming fall.

Any roofer referrals in Louisiana, property in Washington parish

@Ken Tsai In the state of Washington you will be charged a transfer tax if you buy in your name and then transfer to LLC and vice versa.

Bob,  prior to foreclosure rescue lease back becoming illegal in OR and WA..

I'm sure the rules are different in WA but in CA if the property has a tenant than you have to buy it as an investment and not owner occupied.

Hey My name is Javin Vizcarra I’m 21 living in Lynnwood, WA.

Hi,Would anyone be able to suggest a good real estate lawyer in Washington State that would be familiar with the laws surrounding lease termination?

The lower risk areas are the areas are the areas that will then have higher appreciation, as that lower risk is reflective of the higher demand for the asset, and with that higher demand comes higher asset price growth over time.And yes, as you allude to, declining population in Baltimore, (a 70 year trend) is a huge risk of that market, and thus why Baltimore has some of the highest yields in the country.But lower risk markets, with high appreciation due to higher demand, like DC, Montgomery County, are thus going to have very low yields upon initial purchase.

I see you are from Bremerton, WA - I grew up in Kingston/Poulsbo!
