Fortunately there's plenty of cities in the PDX metro area not affected by this. 

She is generating plenty of contacts and building great relationships but I am wondering if anyone knows about how many listing appointments per month/week I should be expecting.  

I do like that you'll have plenty of reserves after closing for emergencies like having to evict although knowing the type of tenants on the Westside are less likely to be problems then B and C neighborhoods and work you still have to do. $2900 might actually still be a good deal from their eyes but use discretion inheriting tenants using has it's challenges. 

There's plenty of those guys that just sell you and forget you.  

But I would highly recommend that you go NO pets for the property it's simply not worth the expense, and damages that they cause,, you won't regret it and their are plenty of people that rent that don't have pets..

I do excellent work, nobody loves my property more than me, my investment model is a live-in flip so I've got plenty of time to make repairs and upgrades, and I have a very difficult time finding great contractors.I believe there are inspections involved before the lender will release the funds.The 20% down is to avoid PMI or Private Mortgage Insurance.

Plenty of benefits and opportunities...GL

Good weather + plentiful high paying jobs = high demand.

I would recommend plenty of diligence. 

AND, since I bought the property at a wholesale price, I have plenty of upside even if the market takes a dump or I could sell it today and pocket an easy 6 figures.Deals like this can be found all over SoCal and hard working investors are sniffing them out.
