I've had some investments perform better than others but section 8 rentals were the one that were most challenging to sustainably operate and my worst performers over an extended period of time.

Historically, real estate markets perform best when the economy is stable, with steady mortgage rates and consistent demand for housing and commercial properties.

The price should reflect the current performance, not the seller’s expectations for the future.Seller financing is a big plus.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

.- PM is contractually obligated to perform annual maintenance/inspection to keep property in top shape. - PM provides a cash based accounting report every month, for every unit under management, that clearly labels all rent, all expenses, including management fees, and the net directly ties to the amount of money deposited into my bank account.- PM is a licensed handyman, or has them on staff, and takes care of most unit turn work at a reasonable rate. - PM has no breakup/termination fee- PM does not take project management fees, except on large or complicated CapEx projects exceeding $5,000. 

When you have a proven track record of performance, then you can play with other people's money. 

If you’re using financing, this situation might also influence lender decisions.I have many rentals in Jacksonville FL and have had to evict three tenants.

How do you call a performing Wrap due, in order to cover the Due On Sale on a property you did a SubTo on if your buyer is within his rights on the Wrap?

Hi Erica, what I've notice is that high-quality (high-priced) washer and dryers don't out perform other based price models in rentals.
