Density is not a cure-all silver bullet.

@Zachary KesslerWe manage almost 100 S8 leases.S8 is NOT the cure for tenant nonpayment issues!

Even then, tenants have a right to cure any lease violations.

OK Thanks Chad.. yes now that you clarify that and I also work in the low value asset sand box but only to Investors who have money to turn them around I would never count on those owner occ's to cure at least at any large % to easy to  walk  and the properties as you mentioned many will be functionally obsolete and economically obsolete so they turn into your basic zombie house that local wholesalers go for ..

Truly though, the notice to cure or vacate could be enough to get him to stop.

We're not curing cancer; it's just buying real estate, doing some basic math, buying some furniture and kitchen utensils, maybe getting creative with some amenities, and listing properties on STR platforms...it's daunting when you're new, certainly a grind to get started, but it's not a mystery or puzzle to solve.

Dec 2024 - Sewage backing up in the house again. 

Let the community know and get some feedback on how to cure the roadblock.

Due to past poor management of the environmental infrastructure, the river has become illegal to swim in in certain parts, and after rain falls the entire river is off limits to swim or fish in due to the heavy amounts of pollution ending up there that the city has not had the infrastructure to deal with in the past.But this all began to change in 2017, when the Virginia General Assembly passed the largest infrastructure project in Alexandria's history to make the Potomac River swimmable, and fishable by the year 2040, and they have made significant progress recently with the completion of the 2 mile long, 100-foot deep Waterfront Tunnel named Hazel.Named after environmental activist Hazel Johnson, the Hazel Waterfront Tunnel will prevent millions of gallons of combined sewage from polluting the region's waterways.

If calling a plumber to fix a real leak is going to kill your reserves, this is a bad deal on a property and bad cash flow.The first thing to learn as a landlord is that everything is your responsibility to cure.
