Regarding renting a room, the biggest thing is to be aware of the landlord-tenant law in Portland - it is very restrictive and considered unfriendly to landlords (whether you are renting a room or renting the whole place), Tip, for rent cost, look on platforms like CL, Airbnb, hotpads.com, etc.

Does anyone know of any useful tips or strategies to make connections with wholesalers/agents that could provide distressed properties so I can create a pipeline for my business?

I have also looked into borrowing for a down payment whether its from a personal loan, hard money lender, family, credit card cash advances, etc.Are there any recommended tips, products, BP webinars/podcasts that address this kind of situation?
