If you use different sources it will be difficult to calibrate the different scores, but think of it as a percentage of the max available score.This particular score seems to be based on an applicant's credit history, including payment history, credit utilization, and credit availability. 

If you are having trouble sourcing either over a years-long period I agree selling makes the most sense.

Sometimes the contractor will put a % on the top of the materials to source it.2) what's your range for remodeling a bathroom?

We have been keeping it as office use until we get our construction financing set up along with all of the other funding sources.

Would it break fair housing laws to say we are not willing to work with the program since it's not a source of income and they pay on their behalf?

As an investor your sole "Boots on the ground" should not be people selling you a property.  

You need to find out the source of the issue first before you start charging the tenant. 

@Fakaradin Floy as mentioned landlords in alexandria don’t need help renting units right now and will not risk arbitraging the unit that is solely based on your ability to rent the unit when you have no experience and will most likely take no responsibility for damage.Am

Hey @Trevor Scheumann, The biggest thing to look for when visiting a new potential market is going to be to network with boots on the ground, namely property managers, highly recommended realtors and maybe a few contractors if they come from trusted sources.

If you do source this information, you may start with the note and go to greater extremes should that not work.
