Section 8 rentals in Alabama?
What are the pros and cons of investing in Section 8 rentals in Alabama? Looking at the idea of expanding into this market. I've heard some good things about Tuscaloosa, Mobile, Montgomery and Birmingham. It is my understanding that Birmingham is in Shelby County and Jefferson County. I know having a good property manager that is skilled at placing and working with tenants with a housing choice voucher is crucial as well as obviously working with an investor friendly.
Has anyone had success in these markets?
