@Mohsin Mazhar Everett and Chelsea are in your price range and are rapidly becoming more valuable

The former due to its growing nature & proximity to Portland; the latter due to the fact that it's not in Seattle!

(e.g. properties in ATL with basements end up with hydroponic grow farms) .  

Our main issues is that we don't have a network, we don't know where to start as a good investment that will grow fast into several new investments. 

But if you are trying to grow equity you have to find something under market and fix up.

Hi everyone,I've been following the forums and podcast for a while, and now it's time for me to take it one step further :)I do not live in the states, but as my home country has a really tough real estate market which requires a lot of capital and has really low yields, I want to invest in the US.I currently have around ~250k and I want to start by purchasing a rental property to generate cash flow, then if it goes well slowly grow and add more units.

It is still growing in my opinion and a lot of new businesses and construction are being built there.

The chances of you getting a colony of growing mold under those planks if you just let it dry out over a long period of time is low, but not nonexistent.

@Eric Creager I have 2 rentals and have not needed these services yet. turbo tax, personal ownership and a vetted online lease are adequate when starting out. as you grow your business that may change.

Now we are looking at getting into growing ourselves and our real estate portfolio.
