If you have been paying rent on time and not violating the lease agreement, I'm not sure legally the owner can kick you out:"The sale does not automatically end a lease or month-to-month rental agreement.

My other recommendation would be to post to Hotpads.com directly, as your listing will automatically post to Zillow and Trulia from there. 

When one of tenants in common dies, the remaining one automatically becomes the sole owner.

It automatically transfers the money from the tenant’s account to yours.

Then build and understand the financial model around that, that will automatically define the neighborhood and the building type for you. 

They aren't married, so one's obligations aren't automatically the obligations of the other.

You don't want to deal with automatic stay issues.Disclaimer: While I’m an attorney licensed to practice in PA, I’m not your attorney.

I suggest this because the loan does not show up on you FICO score and the payment will automatically be coming out of your paycheck.

I do like your buy & hold strategy, but unless you really enjoy driving to tenants to collect rent every week, you should consider requiring your tenants to sign up for automatic withdrawal from a checking or savings account.Collecting rents in cash creates the opportunity for payment disputes, not to mention being a security risk and a huge inconvenience for you.If you're goal is to build a serious portfolio of properties, you'll need to resolve the rent payment issue sooner or later.

If I raise the rent to $575 will Sec 8 automatically pick up the rent increase since the portion the tenants are paying would be considered the 'most' they can pay each month?
