I always enjoy helping friends out.  

I also enjoy that Hood to Coast Relay race and will probably be up there again this year.I almost moved up to Corvallis a number of years ago. 

Open floor plans are great as well, it will benefit you because a unit will appear bigger then it actually is and your tenants will enjoy openess because it will create a pleasant environment for interacting within the unit. 

I like not getting my hands dirty and just enjoying the cash to buy more properties.

I have a good job that I really enjoy so if I get into real estate it will be a small side gig, and never more than a hobby. 

If anyone is interested in meeting up I would enjoy hearing from you.

Thank you @Jefferson Lilly.I really enjoyed listening to your podcast.

I think that from everything I read being a buy and hold investor is the most compatible with my goals which is to focus on long term net worth enhancement and steady rates of return.

Sounds like dad is enjoying his golden years and doesn't want any BS.I can't stand SFR rentals.

I have enjoyed reading the different threads here so far and look forward to meeting and networking with everyone in the upstate area.
