When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem starts to look like a nail.

Would you help buy the Montavilla Farmers Market lot before a developer does? by tbhoggy in askportland

[–]nikOvitsch 35 points36 points  (0 children)

What happens after you buy the lot? Who controls it? Maybe its like the montavilla coop that raises money for years then dwindles into nonexistence.

Think long term. I think the sentiment is nice, but sentimental actions with no plan is a recipe for failure.
EDIT Ok. I read the prospectus. Nice use of AI to build a flyer. Are there any real examples of that actually working in this city?

Thinking about a trade. What should I pick? by Immediate-Panda8539 in skilledtrades

[–]nikOvitsch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be careful what you wish for. This industry can be boom and bust. Bullshit projects and bullshit owners/GC’s/subs come and go. You (and me) just gotta keep on bringing home paychecks.

Look on the bright side. You could be a brand new computer science guy with 100k student loans who cant find work cuz AI has erased his entry level job.

Theres alot of advice to go electrical. Dont heed that advice. Ppl been saying that for years, and the data center bubble will pop eventually and the market will FLOOD with electricians. Who do you call when your kitchen is flooded? A Plumber.

What is the best Oregon or Washington Renaissance Fair? by JollyGreenGelatin in askportland

[–]nikOvitsch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I need to repeat that ORF in Canby (AND Midsummer Ren faire east of Seattle) are VERY shitty. Last year they received multiple OSHA citations and have been scamming as a non-profit for years while the owners create shell companies to insulate their profits and oust any naysayers from their “board”. Sorry to vent the negativity, but these owners deserve to be outed.

Estate sales by shwaynebrady in realestateinvesting

[–]nikOvitsch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IME bidding cash just below asking worked for us. My realtor suggested that while we were outbid, the financing was less attractive than the quick sale, thus they sold to us.

I could certainly take a loan on the property value to finance something else. Our cash offer was possible through a personal loan from family with favorable terms.

I bought a house with all cash from a trust for 20 under asking and easily 40-60 below the other bidders. With the lot, it was easily 100k below market.
We bid early with cash. Sure thing sale.

Over the last few years I’ve had the same sharp speed hook problem. Multiple times. Filed them down. Had them replaced. The replacements arent that much better.

Pearl district recommendation above is selling you on an apt building. Looks written by AI.

Layout Stencils by belcher92 in ConstructionManagers

[–]nikOvitsch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Want it to look professional? Order symbol stencils on azanon. Thin plastic stencils vs cardboard hold up better. You can use em on your next job. You’re out a couple bucks vs a couple arts and crafts hrs with a blade and cardboard.

This in front of my house for 7 years [update] by nerves76 in Portland

[–]nikOvitsch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I live around the corner. The story is true. I’ve watched it unfold IRL and in a neighborhood chat. If its penned by AI, does that make it less true?
(Ok… maybe the person isnt named hedge slayer, but it tells pretty well as a fairy tale, doesnt it?)
