@Jessica W. its of my opinion that you don't have the right realtor or your level of expectations is higher than your budget however I'm leaning highly towards your realtor.

Your thoughts might be leaning towards residential vs. commercial, but these people have done very well in a short time.They may have some ideas or insights for you to consider.The website for one of the sports bar is:Colorado Mountain Breweryhttp://www.cmbrew.comScott Koons, a 1993 Air Force Academy graduate, is the managing general partner of the group of investors.Best of luck.

My strategy is buy-hold for long-term with 1031 exchanges occasionally trading up to larger properties.I think I'm leaning towards leverage, but don't want to get over my head.

"Bigs" is what I have conveniently nicknamed my favorites on this site!

Initially I thought I would partner with a builder but now I am leaning towards a prefab.

I would definitely seek an attorney to help, Portland leans very heavily towards renters rights, so make sure you do everything right.If you need any Real Estate advice, feel free to call!

But as @Michaela Graham says, crawl space is most convenient usually, if it is roomy enough.

@Mun Kee,First priority, lean the many, many laws.

When setting this up, I tell the payer this should be more convenient for them so that they can cash their check and send me one at the same time.

Part of what a person is buying is the convenience of not fighting for a parking spot.
