I'll be looking forward to talking shop!

Not sure what Jake's going to do, but if I were exclusively a SFR investor, about to unlock 75% of my equity in my 12 paid for homes, I'd go shopping. 

Invite some local investors to coffee, attend meetups, post whenever you see an area you can add perspective to.  

@Martin SI think you would have better luck if you sat down over a cup of coffee with the agent so you can explain what you are looking for and let the agent know you are serious and not have the agent chasing deals where you will be making low ball offers and never close.

You should shop around, you have leverage.I have not dealt with BECU, have had good luck with Red Canoe, but they don't go further north than Federal Way.  

If you'd like to grab lunch/beer/coffee or something and see if we could potentially provide value to one another shoot me an email. [email protected] of luck, Charlotte is boomin'!!

Maybe I can buy you some coffee and ask you some questions about real estate investing?

I would absolutely replace the cabs, with 42" uppers (replacing that inaccessible area above the doors), a 24" deep cab over the reefer with a return or narrow broom closet on the left.Here's an idea I've used for an inexpensive but attractive alternative to granite for your price level: Have a local shop fab up black plastic lam tops with square front edges, and NO 4" splash.

Always welcome talking REI over coffee.

Additionally Central Heights is undergoing a bit of a renaissance as they build new restaurants, bars, shops, etc near heights blvd.
