Note: estimations were made based on the low-range for this area.Now, dependent on some semi-interesting property details and prices, leads me to believe that the property could be sold for a lot less than $849,900 (sold on 1/27/2020 at $782,000; and is now back on the market for $849,900).

I used a medium gray semi gloss on my living room.

I am not zoned for adu, but am trying to figure it if I can run plumbing to the semi attached garage (no conjoining doors or entry ways to the house) and just sleep in the garage when the house is rented.

Started in 2016 and now have enough monthly cash flow to be full-time in real estate and am basically semi-retired.

Hey @Luke Hayes, I haven't had a positive custom building experience, but I can give you the major critiques based off of my parent's custom home fiasco and a client's failed semi-custom home. 

raise the rent a bit to anticipate the repairs, and require more cleanliness, dog waste etc... and then as was mentioned, do semi annual walk throughs. 

Should provide tenant payment information, full leasing and financial reporting, etc.Perhaps you suggest a standing monthly or quarterly check-in, as well as quarterly or semi-annual property inspections.Solution to #2 – there should be a clause in the management contract that provides a threshold where any work above a certain amount requires owner approval (emergencies are handled separately).

To your point on how to tap into it before they get listed, the general rules I like to follow are attending meetups/other semi-professional networking opportunities, all the real estate agents I know have a group of investors whom they serve regularly, I have gotten several deals because my agent called around.

Also some semi rural like 7--14 units at 92%.Might try condos as well. 

I'd look to start in some semi-local areas, such as Charlottesville, Richmond, Roanoke, DC, Lynchburg, and then branch out.
