Moving to Portland or within Portland? This beautifully-restored two-story home can be yours to rent while you look around, and then yours to buy if you like living here. Because the owner is a real estate broker, your lease can be flexible if you buy this house or a different one using her real estate services. If you're wanting to rent rather than buy, this house could be your home long-term. The house has character, yet all the modern amenities and lots of room to spread out. The bedrooms are large, with walk-in closets. The kitchen is new, with quartz counter tops and stainless appliances and an island. The floors are hardwood and tile. The bathroom upstairs has a claw foot tub, and the primary suite has a balcony. There's a nice fireplace in the living room, and an energy- efficient heating and central air cooling system to keep utilities reasonable. There's even a bonus area for hobbies, bikes, or extra storage. A large covered deck and privacy-fenced yard invite outdoor living, and a sprinkler system keeps the front looking nice for you! It's only a short walk to Mt. Tabor and the restaurants and bistros of Montavilla, but it's on a quiet street. It's convenient to public transportation and I-84, and is right on the bike path. Homes like this for rent, especially with a flexible lease if you decide to buy, do not come along very often. Call and arrange your in-person or FaceTime tour before it's gone. Applications can be accepted as soon as 9 a.m. Sunday, September 15, with showings to be arranged on Sunday, September 22. This home can be leased with an option to buy if you meet financial qualifications. If you need flexibility, you may purchase a different house and end your lease early if you use the owner/broker's real estate services. Utilities are in tenants' names except garbage, which is added to the rent. No smoking in the house please. Well-trained small dogs are okay with pet deposit, but landlord must approve the dog and the breed. There is a carport, driveway, as well as street parking. Renters' insurance is recommended, and tenant's gross income must equal at least two and a half times the monthly rent. The owner manages the property rather than a property management company and keeps it in excellent condition for your enjoyment. Homes this nice do not become available for rent often. Set up an appointment to see the home in person or via FaceTime before it's gone.
