- Family is full of General ContractorsGoal- Plan to live in 1-2 Years before doing a cash-out refi for our next property- Goal is to lower our monthly rent.

You live in one of the biggest REI areas of the country, so smart to take advantage, especially now that they opened up 3 and 4 unit multis to owner occupant low downpayment options.I looked at a great 4 -plex available in Gladstone for $365, will probably go for $385.great deal. good condition. $800 per 2 bed /1 bath unit. quick mortgage calculator puts zero% down monthly payment at $3500, plus then offset with $2400 puts you on the hook for $1100. 

Recently updated with brand new countertops, fresh paint throughout, sleek new flooring, and stylish light fixtures, this home offers a chic and turnkey living experience.

I lived in this house before, so I know what’s going on.

I sign up for this all in 2019 for this is the first time I’ve logged in.I bought a place in 2018, remodeled and sold in 2022 and chased my dream of 20 years of moving to Jackson Wy however investing here in not an option since I’m not a billionaire sooooo I am planning my next moves and looking to invest.I have roughly $30K (potentially $50K) to invest in a flex and flip as I’m not sure I could do the landlord thing.I have been looking in places I would like to actually live which is eastern Oregon, North central/East Tennessee, Rapid City or Naples-Clearwater Florida areas.I have even considered building (having a builder build it) new or spec home so if anyone knows of any reputable builders?

My wife and I fostered two young boys and we have been blessed to continue to be in their lives for years now.
