Great work AJ - Our group is seeing many investors target the Oregon coast due to location and value. 

Each time you move to a new location you are going to be starting from scratch, and it's going to be incredibly difficult to rehab a property in a brand new location out of state with no team in place.

I am working on a 7 family and a 9 family deal, but all of my local lending contacts for commercial loans are quoting me between 7.5% and 8%. 

If it's flipping, wholesaling, single family, STR or self-storage surround yourself with local people doing that thing at a high level.

Talk to a local appraiser and ask what upgrades add the most value in your zip code.  

Purchase price: $160,000 Cash invested: $35,000 A Bigger Pocket member I met at a local networking event had never invested, but really wanted to.

VA assistants has dramatically reduced our work in the business and provided 24/7 monitoring for a fraction of the cost of local property management. 

Your home IS in a location that could make it a good STR/MTR given proximity to attractions and it's in beautiful shape so I don't think the operator is pulling the interest/opportunity out of their a**.Attorneys would probably argue with me, but if their LLC is going to rent it, I would still get the individual on the lease or at least a co-signor guarantor agreement so that you have the EIN and SSN for purposes of evictions and collections. 

I'm not traveling to exotic locations on business. 

Maybe see if your local flood control authority or whoever at the city would want it and maybe pay a nominal amount for it.
