The risk of property damage or a lawsuit from a dog bite is too high. 

However, a lot of concerns can be mitigated with looking at their past rental behavior in a lot of different settings.

the event i went to in tampa last year at a resort had security but I think the other Mendenhall brother that no longer works there oversaw it they seemed professional and were ex military type guys..two k9 dogs were there. 

It's not the dogs; it's the owner. 

Low cost housing is a huge motivator to change behavior and keep their housing voucher. 

I got a very lucrative multi-day booking this fall, and then tried to cancel just a couple of weeks later claiming I want except her service dog which wasn't true.

As they say, do not let the tax tail wag the dog. 

After dealing with this situation for quite some time I started studying scams, frauds then human behavior then cults.

because I was paying my bird-dogs vs having them pay me and just promise how someday, maybe just maybe they will bring the grand-slam of a deal and then I will be paying them oh-so much $$$$$ Seriously, from those buying into this I gotta understand how your mind works, no insult meant, I am genuinely intrigued and baffled because if it's a good deal you can go to any number of investors and get $, not a one will charge you for the opportunity to present them deal. 

One thing I will say there is a shortage of is properties that accept a pet (single pet, ie 1 dog)You will see a lot of manufactured housing on this corridor, but there are some older homes needing updates since the parent or grandparent had just passed (just toured a great one that sold for $219k in a week (cash) that was massive but my buyer was afraid of the work & it was easy fix and flip)As I mentioned below, I'm very curious to your style-what makes the right deal for you?
