I have an appointment this week with the L&I office to discuss this issue, to see if they can issue me a letter or anything that notes that the property can legally be used as a two-family.I would greatly appreciate any input that any of you may have!

The real issue is If you cant pay your mortgage without the help of a rental, you bought way to much house.

Some issues that I see with your plan1) What do you plan to do with your unit in Oregon while you are living in Washington?

And not just that, lets say we pass 2023/2024 with lot of foreclosure that we expected.Lets say we move forward to 2033, Fed rate at 2033 lets say 4%, cap rate for apartment 3% (after going down from cap 6% in 2024), we would hit the same issue again and by that time, most of today's GP would move to different job or industry anyway, or retired.

Besides, the point is not to hold on to the property but to add value and flip or BRRRR so it wouldn't be an issue.

IE> If there is an issue and someone gets hurt you can be sued if you don't have insurance or if theirs does not cover you. 

Hello California landlords and investors, I came across this post on reddit discussing issues with tenant biased laws in California and lots of the comments seem to suggest that investing or being a landlord in California is very difficult and potentially a hassle/litigious/costly in case of issues. 

@Nick Maugeri It also depends on your level of risk tolerance for whether you want to leverage a property and if there are issues with the property that will not allow it to be financed initially.

A search and seizure warrant was signed off and issued for tenants son who resided at my property from evidence I assume acquired by law enforcement.Need eviction attorney recommendation:This started out as a termination for the lease clause mentioned above.

@Aaron Landau  depends on the area but most areas it is not an issue when you are living in the house, it would be like a roommate situation.
