I've learned through the years that whether your experience with Section 8 is positive or negative is heavily based on the Section 8 agency you will interact with. 

Solar only makes sense if it's done A) Long-term and B) Heavily subsidized via tax credits.  

I'll say it again......people must be banking heavily on appreciation.

It's all a guessing game, but it is a fact that cash flow is good there.Avoid the smaller/heavily depressed towns like Shenandoah.

I haven't been particularly involved in wholesales, but have been heavily involved with full gut renovations and add-a-level projects (since 2010).  

Heavily shopped refinances typically have much lower pull through rates than purchase mortgages. 

@Amy Hu all of those things are no less likely to occur in state if you use property managers or contractors- I think due diligence just needs to be emphasized more heavily by people that are utilizing professional services to manage all aspects of their asset.It's terrible to hear what's happened with your PM and contractor.

Once your company is set up, market heavily to real estate agencies.

Also with loans you are trusting their underwriting system heavily so do your own Due Diligence.

Rents are currently $525 but all the utilities are included which cuts heavily into cash flow.
