While this works in certain circumstances (IE you are buying under market value and rehabbing to increase to full market value) it will not be as simple as putting lipstick on a pig and commanding a higher property value.

You have no idea how this could set him off.Do you know how to get hold of his commanding officer? 

Students need housing year-round, and new students arrive each academic year.Higher Rents: Student rentals can often command higher rents per bedroom compared to traditional rentals.

My apartments are nicer than the median or average apartments in the markets where I compete, and as a result easily command more rent than section 8 will pay.

Finding a really nice house to rent is hard at any price and what you have will command a premium price.

But I only command $3150 a month.  

Who is the human in the command and control seat?

-Look at the pictures of the properties commanding top rental rates. 

However, from my limited command of tax strategy, accounting, and business planning, it feels, so far, like you get what you pay for. 

Solid overall process, downside is typically it commands a bit higher of an interest rate.
