Quote from @Colin Ford: Happy Saturday BiggerPockets nation, My fiancé and I have been vacationing in ST.

Hey there, I'm a UK National working in the US under a L1B visa.

Unfortunately the photo did come through with Ja and Desmond...i'm sure that was a fun experience.Have you heard of the REDI program sponsored by ULI, the Urban Land Institute?

You'll have to keep escalating this to get it resolved as the national PMC you hired is probably using poorly trained VAs who don't know/care/authorized to fix the problem.What do you mean about the, "undisclosed maintenance markup fees"?

I used to train up there when I was in the AZ National Guard and my wife and I met there in 2015.

It would be far better for you to join NARPM - National Association of Residential Property Managers SE Virginia Chapter and join as an affiliate. 

This seems to be breaking down new construction and is a national average so kind of hard to read into this what it means in general but I would not expect a 665k new construction house to be my target for a rental property. 

@Scott Suryan we've review REI Nation's processes and met Chris - if we ever did turnkey, we'd model it after their systems!

Sellers often favor buyers who can make larger down payments, as it indicates stronger financial backing and reduces the risk of the deal falling through due to financing issues.Additionally, SFH properties are more accessible to a wider range of buyers, including first-time homebuyers and families, which can lead to less direct competition from institutional investors.

With SFR, they appreciated at a national average of 3.8% from the last study that I read in 2024.
