Jan/Feb/March sales were up about 8-10% over 2019.I think inventory in many price ranges is still tight.So now maybe instead of 10 offers you get 2 or 3.I just saw an article about 600 California companies wanting to move to Texas.Also I don't think Amazon HDQ 2 has worked out like they thought and back looking at Dallas for big office.Also just this week saw info about Goldman Sachs making basically 3rd HDQ in Dallas with nearly all divisions represented and their CEO saying basically that not all financial talent is in NYC and more companies need to understand that.This crisis will pass. 

Hello my partner and I are looking at a SFR condo that is priced in he $35-$40k range.

However, you'll often find niche gyms, breweries, restaurants, and more diverse & wide-ranging tenants signing leases when standard retail/strip mall sites become too expensive. 

Hello-My partner and I are looking at a SFR condo that is priced in he $35-$40k range.

What is the price range you are interested in? 

Most properties are old here and, although they are rentals, they need pretty comprehensive rehabs.

This would-be homeowner has a 596 credit score, putting him in the subprime range.

We have found a few Loudoun County townhome/condos that look like they’re in our price range.

I am thinking I can charge a small "finder's fee", maybe something in the range of $500-$2k.

That includes principle, interest, taxes, and insurance as well.We have spent about $8,500 in repairs and upgrades including - revamping the landscaping, having the brick and siding professionally painted, installing new stained cedar posts and shutters, installing a new privacy fence and having it stained, removed popcorn ceilings, redid the taping/bedding, retextured, had the inside walls and ceiling professionally painted, installed a new cedar beam in the living area, new custom blinds for all windows, all new light fixtures and ceiling fans, brand new stainless steel appliances (range with double oven, dishwasher, microwave vent hood, and new refrigerator - all GE brand) Floors are in good not great shape (tile in kitchen and dining room and single bathroom, laminate in living room and hallway, carpet in both bedrooms) and would be the only other possible upgrade we would consider.
