Wow! I wish I would have discovered this BP community sooner! The blog and forum are amazing tools providing a wealth of knowledge. I am excited to keep learning, maybe share some of my own experience, and keep pushing forward toward my goals!
My wife and I are from Elma, WA and got started in investing a couple years ago. We got sick of paying high mortgage and car payments and struggling financially so we sold the cars and rented our house. While living in an apartment, we bought a duplex owner financing with only 3% down. We now are working on a couple fixer properties and are aiming to build our psssive income.
hey @David Stonewelcome to BP! Always nice to meet local folks- I'm over in Montesano! (Well... Right now I'm in Hawaii on vacation but my Keyword Alert for "Grays Harbor" dinged me so I had to come see who's talking about my area! )
Glad to have you here! Seeya around the site, and probably around the Harbor!
@Svetlana Helms Welcome to BP. I also have people with available properties in Elma. Could you please tell us what you are looking for? Fix and Flip or a Buy & Hold. Single family or multi? Let us know so we can help you. Have a wonderful weekend.
Hey @Svetlana Helms- while I don't have a super solid pulse on the Elma market, since moving to Hawaii - I do still have rentals all over Grays Harbor (not in Elma, though.) Personally- I like Elma. I'm not worried about it, even if a recession hits. People will always need to live somewhere, so as long as you're providing a good property at a fair price, you'll always beat the 70% of people who provide crap properties or charge too much!
