I’d appreciate any input you can offer on everything from financing to construction challenges.

Quote from @Austin Jones: As a realtor focused on helping investors in the Richmond area, I’d love to offer some insights.

This helps you determine what offer makes sense to you.

I made a low offer and it was accepted.

Quote from @Rick Im: I recently submitted an offer on a house listed as having 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.

It’s been pretty competitive here (partly bc we’ve gotten some BP nods over the last year) but I’ve definitely noticed a drop in offers and competition.

If they appeal offer some cash for keys.

@Gregory Banks I can offer some practical advice and referrals.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Variable income is SUPER hard since covid and no real way around that beyond showing an offer letter that states you get a minimum guaranteed hours, and you may need a payroll log to prove you never went below that number.
