There are a handful of active agents here on BP in the Portland area (including my business partner and I) who would be good places to start.

Here are my two cents...I recommend starting in a market with strong fundamentals, such as steady population growth, an influx of major corporations or large businesses relocating to the area, an affordable cost of living, and high rental demand.

and they're difficult to do, because you're up against businesses that do nothing but flip and BRRRR, and here you come along wanting to do 1 home run right out of the gate. 

My goal is to wholesale some properties single and multifamily to build some capital while fixing my personal credit and building my business credit.
