Hey there, I'm looking for anyone who converted a house to a co-living setup in Oregon or even more specific, SW Portland in Washington County.

The deal involves buying an existing single-family house for $700k that conveys with a vacant lot.

Another strategy we might also implement would be house hacking that next house, to reduce how much cash flow we would need.Thanks!

Balloons coming due with higher interest rates, China market, China production, Manufacturing production moving back to the US, Worker shortages, Workert pay hikes, Ukraine/Russia food and fertilizer misses, Oil prices increasing due to the OPEC Q1 production curtailments in place, Houthi issues, Panama Canal Water issues, Illegal immigration impact (buy one of those office buildings and rent for $10mm per year for Illegal housing, take advantage) social benefits required, Climate change believe it or not- Buy or sell into that thought process,  US politics, Baby boomers leaving workforce and needing more benefits, Baby Boomers moving from Stocks to Bonds,  etc.I agree things will get worse, but that means more investing opportunities. 

Furnish Finder, corporate housing sites, relocation companies, etc?

Be patient, and set reasonable expectations.

You need to calculate your return on equity to see if it’s time to leverage that equity more, you also want to calculate your blended interest rate of the original loan and the the HELOC to see if that’s the best rate or if a cash out refi would be better.If I were you I would look at doing the same move again and buy another primary residence and turn your current house into your second rental.

All houses were set to boom, but I'll need to check the records.

unless it was forced appreciation I'd love to see a house that appreciated 15% in 6 months. 

But, thats the whole point, its for a rental, I'll be able to have a full set of base cabinets for less than $900.
