@Jeremy Phillips You are catching me in the midst of a discovery process -- well before any necessary paperwork and other logistics are setup to create a solid HML structure.

I've sold $100M+ & there is a zero 0% chance you'll catch me driving buyers around town.

The catch is there is $250 fee to submit the application.

@Eric Lui Thank you so much for catching that!

It is intended to prevent price gouging anywhere in the state where there is increased consumer demand as a result of the declared emergency.“ As for what is the worst case scenario that could happen, I suppose being criminally charged like the landlord in this story: Novato landlord charged with price gouging as prosecutors scour for cases after firesIt’s too bad the Housing Authority didn’t catch it before they approved your request for the rent increase.

The law of averages catches up on property loss.Personally I have seen loss / damage of investment property; due to fire on vacant investment property (which was under renovation) with reconstruction cost of about $55,000; tree branch falling on roof (occupied property) that made to replace roof for about $13,000; water damages...... 

I’m not sure the situation but someone did in fact throw a Molotov cocktail at the other side of the adjacent house , which thankfully did NOT actually catch on fire!

In two years you will be playing catch up when interests go up.

One question to clear the air with your tenant may be to reach out to them and ask what method would be easier for them to catch up on rent until you begin the regular scheme.

I grew up in Napa.. its multi billions and Oregon is 25 years behind Napa but slowly catching up.its good for farm workers and some retail.. what you get though is tons of restaurants that could no way exist in these areas can make a go of it plus hospitality and i bet STR really work too in the Dundee hills were its all county and there I am sure is no restrictions at least not yet. unlike Napa and Sonoma counties highly restrictive STR regsOregon land use while highly restrictive in the farm forest ag land .. if your in the city and zoned its some of the easier places to pop up 50 homes anywhere on the west coast.. not simple but nothing like CA or parts of WA.
