How this works in Washington D.C.
Investment property in Washington D.C.: the local rules.
Timeline & foreclosure
D.C. requires mandatory mediation; the process typically takes 6+ months. We can close in 14–21 days when you're ready.
Washington D.C. is a non judicial foreclosure state.
Closing custom
A title company handles closing in D.C. Recordation taxes are notably high — budget for them when you price the home.
Local demand
D.C. has one of the densest condo and rowhouse markets in the country. Rowhouse equity is usually high even on pre-foreclosure files — often unlocking owner-financing as a higher-net option than discounted cash.

Glossary
Key terms for investment property in Washington.
- ARV (After-Repair Value)
- What the Washington property will sell for once renovated. Drives every offer formula; sanity-check it against sold comps within a half-mile and the last 90 days.
- 70% rule
- Max offer ≈ (ARV × 0.70) − rehab. A starting point, not a law; tight markets routinely transact at 75–80% of ARV.
- Assignment
- Selling your purchase contract to another investor before closing. The end buyer takes title; you collect an assignment fee.
- DSCR loan
- Debt-Service-Coverage-Ratio loan that qualifies on the property's rent — not your personal income. The standard way to scale past Fannie's 10-financed-property cap.
