Few more points:Their lease is valid till May 2025.This is the first time she even told me about mold.In the email she did ask me to settle the lease.I have a little less than a month of rent as security deposit, which I am ready to settle without any additional penalties for abandoning the property.At this point I am okay with her leaving the place, just I want to get the control of the property back to fix the mold issue.History:1) Recently the AC has been replaced and after that there was some intermittent issue with the installation (temp doesn’t reach target intermittently) and I had to call the tech back 5 times to finally get it resolved.2) Also last month I replaced electric range with Brand new Electric range.3) Two months back she said the refrigerator was leaking, I asked her to send picture of the make and mode of the refrigerator, but I never got a reply back.4) Also for last 4-5 months she has been asking me to send her 5-day notice so that she can claim reimbursement, I was sharing a document and she was paying the rent a little late.

Twice the agent was worth it as I was brand new or out of area.

I've not looked at what I could get for rent ahead of time, like you have, but it's a large apartment with 1 bedroom, 2 other rooms (office plus bonus room, etc) plus a brand new open concept kitchen, with its own separate entrance and garage access. 

But , remember you are NOT buying a brand new house .

Leveraging social media by using a key strategy (personalized to your brand, goals, and target audience) is an excellent way to generate more leads & close more deals!

You could get new construction with your VA loan and when you move on in a year or so, have a virtually brand new home that will be very little upkeep to maintain when you put tenants in there and typically, you will get higher rents in a newer construction home. 

I’m very green and brand new to real estate investing so I wanted to make sure this was something actually feasible.

In the end it's just damaging the brand. 

I am brand new and interested in my first foray into real estate investing.
