@Harsh Poshti from my point of view and given the location's visibility on 355, proximity to the Clarksburg outlet and residential surroundings, a mixed-use approach could maximize your property's potential.

Build an emergency fund to cover unexpected costs, and ensure you can manage the mortgage without STR income if needed.

Did you encounter any unexpected hurdles in the resale market?

Let one Tennant hanging with defective outlets in the kitchen for 2 weeks when the townhouse was it was under warranty.

Risk Management: Be aware of the risks involved, such as unexpected renovation costs, property management challenges, or changes in the housing market.

As an investment property owner, this means less maintenance and fewer unexpected expenses from storm related damage, often resulting in more affordable insurance premiums, less wear & tear on mechanical equipment, roofing materials or exterior surfaces.

I have been less active on the investor homefront dealing with an unexpected curveball I got thrown in life.Still have big goals for Q1 2025: -Get Pre Qual'd for VA construction loan(may be until later in the quarter as I also have to refi out of my current VA loan to regain full entitlement.

Up here we often have an outlet from each tenant's panel going right out to the parking area for engine block heaters.

This is a more affordable option but only protects against named events.Comprehensive Coverage: Often called “all-risk” coverage, this protects against most unexpected events, except exclusions like flooding or earthquakes, which usually require separate policies.

There are ups and downs, and as you have been in business for 9 years till you closed it, there are unexpected turns, or expenses that you really do not see around the corner.
