How are thing in your "interest" area?

Instead of just addressing the violation, they framed it as wanting to fully understand the requirements because they value the area and are committed to following the guidelines.

Happy to be helpful if I can, since you are a BP community member :)

We’re considering whether to do mid-grade updates and rent it soon if we can find a good next property though acquisition and ongoing costs are a problem.

Whether you're eyeing long-term rental properties, MTR Market, or are looking to live here yourself- this area is full of potential.

We don’t know any PMCs to recommend in the area mentioned, but since selecting the wrong PMC is usually more harmful than selecting a bad tenant, you might want to read our series about “How to Screen a PMC Better than a Tenant”:https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/3094/91877-how-to-screen-a-pmc-better-than-a-tenant-part-1-services-and-processesWe recommend you get management contracts from several PMCs and compare the services they cover and, more importantly, what they each DO NOT cover.

Good listings are a people game, not anything you have at the bottom of your post.

I think you can go as high as 15% but it's cutting into your margins and depends if you are a GC yourself or not. 150k is close to a million or more.
