Post: Heat Pump or Gas Furnace

We are remodeling our house in Portland Oregon and are at a point where we need to choose between a heat pump or gas furnace.
During winters we have noticed we are always comfortable at 72degrees and I’m wondering if someone has a heat pump with weather similar to Oregon’s and can have a warm cozy house :)

Are you using a resi or comm mort broker? >4 units is usually different lenders and that's small for a comm mort broker.
As of now, we could either combine both the properties and get a blanket loan or have them separate. Which ever is possible by lenders.
There are residential lenders who are okay with doing a re-fi on the 2-unit but there is a scarcity for the 5-plex ones.
I am just trying my luck with local banks for the commercial.

With such a great job demand and soaring property prices in Hillsboro OR, I am surprised I have spent months and months together to look for a bank or lender who can re-fi our 5 plex and duplex. Both have great cash flow and very less vacancy.
I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this hardship of finding a lender. I either find someone who does only and only residential or others who want to work with only more than a million.

I have been working with Uptown properties for more than 2 years now. They are very professional and highly reliable. I have recommended them to 2-3 of my friends and they are really glad they took my advice! Check them out here:

Post: Background check for non computer savvy tenant

Hello,
Is there a website for criminal/eviction check for the landlord to use? I have some tenants who are age 55+ and are not really computer savvy. Is there a website where I can go and enter all their info and pay ?
Most of the sites like transunion/cozy etc ask me for a verification. They have a bunch of multiple choice questions to prove identity, like which one of the above seems like a correct county you might have resided in etc.
I used screeningworks before but they are shutting down. So looking for something similar.
