241 NE 68th Ave, Portland, OR 97213

11/24/20 I have received a great deal of interest in this house and am no longer taking additional applications at this time. I am leaving this post up so that those who have already reached out have it available for reference. 11/25/20 - I had this property listed on Craigslist, but have taken my listing down as there have been spoof/scam copycat posts. Any posting you still see for this property on Craigslist is a Scam. Please flag that post and do not send any personal information to the poster.
