Hello BP I’m wondering if I could get any tips for my first rental property located in Houston, Tx. The property is being sold as is with Section 8 tenants still living in the property. Current tenants have been living there for 23 years. I’m looking to buy and hold the property with a 30 year fixed rate loan.

See if you have market rents if not start bumping them up every year.

If you ever have to get new tenants screen them the same as anyone else.

I wish all my properties could be section 8 properties.
