Of the top ten revenue producing STRs in ALL of Oregon - at least two are in Bandon.

Core producer inflation barely moved.Bottom line for agents: This is the report that feeds into PCE (the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge).

Cash Back at Refi ≠ ProfitThis one traps beginners.You pull $30,000 out at the refinance, and suddenly you think you “made” $30,000.You didn’t.That’s debt.You borrowed it.The only reason BRRRR works is because:The asset produces cash flow.The long-term tenant pays down the loan.The equity buffer protects you from downside.You’re leveraging debt into a cash-flowing asset.Not printing money.4.

Speaking from my experience as a real estate professional, real estate investor, and mortgage broker, a setup like this can produce a significant tax advantage when you combine STR material participation with a cost segregation study and 100% bonus depreciation.

Just trying to find the right balance between treating tenants well and keeping the numbers healthy.  

I believe for the patient mostly passive RE investor that leveraged RE can do well but1) residential RE is not passive, especially compared to index funds and etfs.2) because non commercial residential prices are near an all time high, interest rate is near high for this century, rents are all time worse compared to costs (per 2 recent studies) that you would be entering RE at a challenging time and a time were most RE will not produce the returns that were easy to achieve prior to 2022.3) RE provides diversification, but may not far exceed the returns from passive options.  

Inventory is creeping up, days-on-market are stretching, and buyers are behaving differently than they did during the peak frenzy.For investors and move-up buyers, this shift opens the door to opportunities that didn’t exist even a year ago.More Inventory = More Rational OffersEven in a still-healthy market, more inventory instantly changes buyer psychology.

Hi @Adam HumesFinding a standard, turnkey "buy and hold" that produces solid cash flow from day one is incredibly difficult here.There are always opportunities for a buy and hold to cash flow though these are pocket opportunities.

If you have to sell sooner than planned, it’s usually harder to maximize your return.From an income standpoint, small multifamily properties generally outperform single-family homes because they produce more rent.

If the city keeps producing visible results from the last allocation, the cycle strengthens: investment → results → reinvestment.Inventory is down to 3,533 active listings.The 30-year mortgage rate is sitting at 6.18%.
