Description:
There is a niche market that I want to target. The niche market is purchasing 1 and 2 bedroom single family homes built between 1920 and 1940. Typical house would be a Salt Box style with a basement, or the room to add a studio apartment. This type of home and niche is directed at Newlyweds purchasing their first home, who may need to have a rentor to help make the mortgage. The second niche is for the Couple who no longer have children at home and want to downsize, but still have someplace family can come and stay. The final niche is the older couple one or both require medical/caretaker assistance a studio would allow them to remain in there home, and still be independent.
In Portland, many single family homes that were built between 1920 and 1940 are being purchased by developer
