I am wondering if there is any particular way to find Section 8 tenants (outside of just advertising the rental on MLS or CL as accepting section 8)Thanks

Glad to hear it worked out for you @Shawn FarisOne more piece of advice: when a tenant pays late rent, do not accept checks.

The estate may require your girlfriend to sign a doc to agree to accept cash in lieu of the properties.

If he accepts my offer of 150k cash then 6% goes right off immediate leaving him with 141k minus 94k loan to even less.I’ll update after tomorrow.

The coating isn't acceptable for insurance engagement on residential properties.   

While some have had success doing it, there are reasons subject to has never become a mainstream way to purchase properties.

If you continue making payments on the 1st, they may do nothing and keep accepting payments.

Challenge accepted, with or without Blinks help. 

The insurance market is very tight right now especially on older buildings.Many carriers who have policies on the books will not accept those same properties as "new business" or if they do the rates are 2x-10x what the current policy premium is. 

So define what you find acceptable and publish it to any and all prospects.
