Also Mid-Term Rentals to traveling professionals, people displaced for insurance reasons, or doing a renovation to their home and needing a place to live for  3 months or more are also possibilities.

@Jason Wray, The reason that our shop is pretty hot about your post is two-fold, we do all of the things that you are implying that we don't (other than government loans, we don't work in that space). 

@Michael Smythe the repairs were never completed while the tenant was living there.

Hi Adriana, I am a commercial real estate investor in the U.S. but I live in Dubai.In terms of the BRRR strategy, you could probably do a fix and flip in some of the older villa communities like the Springs, Meadows, or Arabian Ranches 1.

The law does NOT apply to landlords:With less then 5 rental unitsThat live in one unit of a duplex and rent out the other unitThat rent out rooms in the home they occupySo, landlords can no longer state in their rental ads, "Section 8 not accepted".The reverse is also true, "Section 8 only", cannot be used.We've always recommended screening S8 tenants the same way as cash-paying tenants.Landlords waiving application fees and/or security deposits only for S8 prospects may also be violating Fair Housing.

Hi @Robert B Azimi,A home that has been registered through The Mills Act, can be rented out the same as any other property, and it can even increase rental revenue as there are people who really like the thought of living in a historic house.

After 25 years of co-living have now graduated to one side of a duplex.

People are looking to live smaller or some are being forced to live smaller, hence the insane growth in apartments and storages.

You can now live on that $200k if you want. 

Focus on absentee owners and start with the ones who live the farthest away and only own one property in the area since they have the least use for the property.You can also drive for dollars, looking for anomalies of disrepair and then look them up in the tax records and use a site like Spokeo to do cheap skip tracing.
