2024 was a banner year for our investor clients with eight prime Oregon Coast vacation rentals sold.

I both personally invest in real estate and help others gets started/expand their portfolios in various Midwest/midsouth markets.What I do with my kids: My wife and I have 2 of our rentals that are on the same street, with a home in between them.

Hi Ella, welcome aboard,Your post about your real estate ambitions, encompassing the purchase, renovation, and sale of properties, as well as the ownership of Airbnb rentals, is indeed an exciting endeavor.

I am on the board of the RPA (Rental Property Association of Wisconsin, a non-profit) and typically hear if things like this are an issue from our members or attorneys.

As always, DYOR (Do Your Own Research) The area has a mix of stable, long-term residents and rental demand—especially with Section 8 tenants—but it does vary block-by-block.Key things to consider are Rental Demand, Property Condition and Management (a local property manager can help navigate tenant screening and city requirements)It’s not as bad as the headlines make it seem, but success here depends on buying right and the right property manager.

I now have a portfolio of six rentals and completed two fix-and-flips.

I live in Austin, TX, and own few rental properties.

Right now, I'm focused on:- Learning the best investment strategies that don’t require a real estate license (wholesaling, rental properties, etc.).- Finding potential clients who are interested in investing but may need help identifying great deals.

I am getting back into rentals after taking a break after my mom passed away.

Do you currently own any rental properties?
