Hi All,I wanted to see if there's any investors in the Richmond, VA market (particularly Chesterfield County) that could potentially help me feel out a few ZIP codes.

Setback requirements for it are :https://library.municode.com/va/alexandria/codes/z...

You're going to end up removing all of the wallboard (and trim) and then bringing the entire house up to code and then recladding and retrimming the house.

You can also buy lists from companies like list source and there are some REI software companies that have a cash buyer search feature.Some of best ways to find motivated sellers is to purchase lists from companies like listsource and or compile lists from city and county like 60-90-120 days late on mortgage, pre-foreclosure, delinquent taxes, water cutoff, code violation, probate, divorce, etc.

Ideally, I would like to be able to call out a specific zip code and/or buyer type (divorcees, out-of-state owners, etc.) and canvass that group. 

I can do a quick free background check on the person, and if no major issues we send them the code for a self-tour. 

Hey BP Fam,Its Marc here, the Nubie from NJ.So part of my of my investing strategy is to buy and hold multifamily in areas that have a blue collar worker force, specifically in zip codes with major Logistics and Warehouse hubs, as I believe eCommerce and online shopping is fueling their growth, and these fulfillment centers are fast replacing our retail stores - and they need man power to run them.......that being said.... 

I am an agent in Missouri who still relies on a Florida Agent for guidance on investing neighbourhoods and local politics (construction code changes, developing towns, etc).

What companies offer property owner analysis lists containing contact info, using parameters such as properties owned for more than 10 years, paid off, zip code, etc?

Are you trying to meet a code requirement saying you need a closet to call it a bedroom?
