Is it safe to look for a professional outside of the city?

I am totally willing to look outside Portland proper, and might actually prefer something outside the city because it seems the regulations are a little more lenient outside of Multnomah county.

I’m looking for someone or any recommendations on someone that can come out and swap a electric water heater for a new one in the douglasville ga area outside of Atlanta

Outside of the FHA route, you may also be eligible for a 5-10% down conventional loan which will be cheaper in the long run.

However, outside of my 401k, I already know that I do not have enough money to put down 20%.

Property seems to be in great shape from the outside, we’ll see.

It has everything to do with my cash (equity is cash lying dormant) outside of the property is 5 times more powerful than if it stayed in the property...and whether it stays or moves, the equity has exactly the same face value...it's the true value that increases to 5 times the face value when I move it.That also means my cash flow increases as well as the appreciation since I now have more property value than I did when the equity remained in place.

A couple notes about expenses:1. heat and hot water are included in HOA fees and would just have tenant pay for electric.2. 5% each for vacancy, repairs and cap ex because it's a small condo and not much to repair and everything outside is part of the HOA.Any feedback would be helpful.

Also, if you are analyzing deals outside of the market that you are familiar with, you have to be very careful.
