@Adam Frederick What is the additional work required by Section 8 that you don't want to deal with? If you are going to rehab a property to an ethical standard, the yearly JHA inspection will go by like a breeze. The paper work to register as a landlord in their program is not time consuming. It all ends up worth it to get your rental payment on time every month, and a tenant that values the program and the voucher they have received from the city.

@Sarah Shockley I disagree with your slumlord comment. I understand what you are trying to say, but there are opportunities to make good returns in these neighborhoods without being labeled a slumlord. I think it all begins with the level of workmanship performed on the initial rehab. 

Sunshine Title and All Florida Title are both highly recommended and allow double closings. I personally use Sunshine Title.

JaxREIA is official and does regulary meet and they have classes. You can go to two classes for free. After that, there is a membership fee that is worth it for the networking, education, and multiple events held throughout the year. Do a quick search for JaxREIA and check out the website.

Someone from the city picks up signs during the weekdays. Weekends are your best bet for them to be untouched. I haven't spoken to anyone who has actually been fined.

We have a Section 8 rental in Lackawanna. Tenant has been favorable and has signed a lease for a third year. We always get our payments on time from JHA. The area isn't the safest, but I wouldn't rate it this bad.

If you need a licensed electrician that will pull permits for you if needed, try Paul Keene at Jax Electrical Contracting. 

I have a professional contact that is moving from Miami to Orlando and looking for a realtor in the Davenport or Kissimmee area to help find a rental. Any suggestions?

Message sent. Thanks.

Hello everyone.

I am in need of a good title company local to the Eastern Shore, Kent County, MD area. Properties are in the Tolchester Beach area, to be more specific. Have anyone you can recommend?

Thanks in advance.

John,

I live in Folkston and work in Jacksonville. I have the game also, but have never played it. Let me know if you get something together.
