I don't see you renting them because we don't have a lot of them for starters. Second most town homes/condos have weight/size restrictions on dogs. Unless there is a mini-grayhound breed I am unaware of, the size of your dog will make renting those kinds of units hard. We have ample small cottages surrounding the downtown core. You don't need to rent a large house. I was just throwing that that size as most people relate to a 3/2.

The Meridian is the condo complex that Steve is referring to that is close to Bush park. They might rent to you since they are having a hard time finding renters, but I think rents are going to be too much.

Hi....I will look into The Meridian....we could go as high as $1000 a month..we will be selling our house here....I just thought renting would be good for us until se get to know the location we want to settle down in....thank you!

Actually I was talking about the one right down town across from the Carrousel by the river. But Bush Park is a great location and close to the prison for work. Both are.

They aren't renting the Rivers to my knowledge. They just finished two model units.

They have a sign up.

That doesn't make any sense. Most of the building is a shell. What the heck are they going to rent? I guess they could rent the two model units that they just finished but what tenant would agree to have to leave for showings and open houses and such.

I was just by there yesterday and the sign is up. I am not sure it is that much of a shell anymore. Have you looked into it recently?

Humm. Looking at their website, it seems they are shells.

I know the stager that helped them with the model units, but I haven't been in it recently since there hasn't been anything to go into. Considering the owner received a suspension from the Oregon BAR for commingling funds and asked the city of Salem to give him $500,000 to complete a model unit, I'm doubting those units are complete in there.
