I would encourage you to sit down with a couple of real estate salespersons and choose one based upon experience as well as knowledge of the area. 

Hey Nicholas,If you’re looking at Section 8 investing in Ohio, I’d definitely encourage you to take a look at Detroit as well.

I normally do not encourage people to forrm entities for real estate, but if I were investing out of state I would have the out of state investments placed in an LLC chartered in that state. 

You could also offer to cover part of their tax liability through negotiation or encourage them to convert the property into their primary residence to use the IRS exclusion for up to $250K/$500K in gains.

However, you have to invest in specific communities where they are encouraging development.

Property owners' and managers' sole recourse for encouraging residents to pay is unavailable.

Thanks for the encouragement and good info haha!

Starting with three T-12s from properties of a similar size and market is a fantastic strategy, and I’ll definitely take your suggestion of setting aside time to really dig into the details.Thank you for the encouragement and practical tips—it’s advice I’ll take to heart as I move forward.

So it serves multiple purposes and I would strongly encourage it

However, I always encourage investors to do their own due diligence.
