@Allen Yang my experience with buying occupied property has never been fun.

Hi @Branden Yang, hard money would be your best option here.

I have tech systems up the ying-yang running 24-7, databases of thousands upon thousands of contacts.   

@Andrew Kennedy in a perfect world a spouse would be that Ying for the Yang, reality rarely works perfectly. 

@Wei Jie Yang we are excited to work with you!

Quote from @Pedro Yang: @Joe FunariWhat areas of Arlington should be avoided for rental?

@Leon Yang - you pretty well nailed it.

@Neil Yang who are you using now?

@Sean Yang your policy should pay you Loss of Rents from the time the tenant had to vacate your property until it is able to be rented (determined by when the work is complete or the city allows occupancy).I have not heard of an adjusted taking that position before.
