I grew up in Sanford and have family all around there. I come back ever so often each year. I've never really thought about the potential of Sanford but maybe you know some things that I don't. Looking forward to connecting with you

This is exactly what I'm trying to do for my 1st property, either in the city or surrounding areas. Just haven't found any properties that "make sense" for me though

 I like that idea. Very cost effective

Great post @Jonathan Taylor Smith and I agree it's all about proper screening and providing a decent living condition for that community. With more research I wouldn't mind taking on the task of Section 8 properties. It takes a strong minded individual to handle that
