Thank you for your words and perspective.

A well priced unit will get multiple offers its first weekend on the market.Next would probably be a for sale by owner, which if you know what you are doing, can save you the listing agent's commission, and sometimes even both commissions, making it more profitable.

Overall not a strong market from a nationwide markets perspective.

I'd ask them what they can do from a PM perspective known if that you plan to buy X number of properties over the next 5 years.

Its never too early to start thinking about multiple income streams.

A 10 year agency deal is much cheaper than a 5 year right now, so its kind of counter intuitive from a bank's perspective.

I’ve seen multiple cases where online county records do not show everything that is on a full commitment.

I have multiple traditional lending contacts here in Bend, OR I would be happy to put you in contact with.

Thank you in advance for reading and I would appreciate any feedback and perspectives.
