According to escrow in Washington state a contract cannot be assigned to a different buyer without an assignment contract signed by all parties.

A few scenarios I am considering are, sell and rent and continues to save for the market to come down (Washington state).

BECU in WA state will do it.

So, if you are intending on investing in CA or IL or WA you might want to look OOS to AZ TX OH MO or TN instead.

Hi everyone, I just got pre-qualified to purchase an investment property at Brandon, MS (outside of Jackson) area and the lender quoted me a 5.75% with 25% down for a 30yr conventional loan with zero processing or any administrative fees.

The first was sold/assigned from WA Mutual through FNMA to Nation Star in 2014.

I was at Washington Sq Mall the other day and one of the booths that is on the concourse was a high end luxury apartment complex.. the presentation was more on the line of selling  vacation homes or actual condo's..  

I am no pro, but dabbled in rental arbitrage in Portland Metro area, specifically Camas, WA.

Washington State had a really large map change 6/19/2020 where 22,529 properties were moved into a flood zone and one more coming for king count on 8/19/20 where another 20,712 properties will be moved into a high risk flood zone. ​

I've also thought, what if I just pay down my 1st trust deed balance a bit to get under the DTI limit, and then open a HELOC w/ a 50% DTI limit to re-access the balance?
