Section 8, HUD & House-Flipping Renovations — Washington, DC and Maryland

Section 8, HUD & House-Flipping Renovations — Washington, DC and Maryland

Investor returns live and die on three numbers: scope cost, days from acquisition to rent-ready or to listing, and the quality of the finished product when an inspector or appraiser walks through. A and E Construction LLC has spent twenty-nine years executing for the investors, landlords, property managers, and flippers who own those numbers. We turn unit interiors, full-house flips, and multi-property portfolios across Washington, DC and Maryland — on schedules that respect a hold-cost calendar and to standards that pass HQS, REAC, and FHA inspections.

Why Investors Choose A and E

Speed Without Cutting CornersRent-ready in 7–14 days is the standard turnover window for our investor clients, driven by pre-walked scope, staged materials, predictable sequencing, and senior project management accountability.
Inspection-Ready, Every TimeWe know Section 8 HQS, REAC, and FHA deficiency lists and write scopes to anticipate the inspector — not react to a fail letter.
Portfolio PricingInvestors with multiple properties or recurring turnover volume receive pricing that reflects the operational efficiency of repeat work.
Lead-Safe and EPA RRP CertifiedWe work lead-safe by default on pre-1978 properties, document our practices, and protect investor liability.
Twenty-Nine Years of Local ExperienceWe know DC and Maryland permitting patterns, common inspector concerns, and local supply-chain bottlenecks — the local knowledge that compresses hold cost.

Our Investor Workflow

1

Property Walk

You send the address; we walk it. Within 48 hours you receive a written scope and a line-item budget. For repeat investor clients we shorten this to 24 hours.

2

Contract

Fixed-price scope, defined start and finish dates, and defined payment milestones. No allowances unless you specifically want allowance-based pricing.

3

Mobilization

Materials staged, dumpster on site, crew assigned, and schedule confirmed. We mobilize within five business days of contract execution; faster on portfolio relationships.

4

Execution

Yodie Narain runs the schedule. Daily updates by text or email; mid-project walk if you want one; final walk and punch list at completion.

5

Inspection Support

For Section 8 and HUD projects, we are available to walk the unit with the inspector. If a finding is issued, we correct it on the standard quick-turn cadence.

Have a unit, a flip, or a portfolio that needs to move?

Kitchen Remodeling Contractor

Gene Kuleta

The guys at A and E Construction are the best. They are responsive, creative and thorough. I hired them to build floating bookshelves, put up wallpaper in two rooms, create a niche for storage covered by a barn door and build furniture to contain filing cabinets. They exceeded my expectations. I had lots that I wanted done, and Eric and Chambers thought creatively about how to accomplish it.

Home Renovation Contractor

Paul Looker Provenza

I hired A and E Construction for a small bathroom renovation, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The communication from bidding to punch list was outstanding. Eric kept me updated every step of the way and helped work through material selection. The craftsmanship and quality of work from the crew was also excellent.

A and E Construction is highly recommended. Would recommend 10/10. Extremely professional, knowledgeable, and thorough.

Nothing but great things to say about Eric and his team!
