To thrive in real estate investing, you must maintain a firm grip on your finances.

Nights, weekends, holidays, etc.To keep this on-topic, though...DO figure out what's healthy for you to manage but remember it's a process where every experience teaches you good and bad (and be patient with that process).DON'T sweat the small stuff (damage/costs under $50, undisclosed dogs, etc.) but DO find a way to learn, prevent, put in better practices to maintain your sanity. 

From my experience, section 8 tenants will go above and beyond to maintain their section 8 support if it becomes at risk.  

I would tell them once they contact the credit agencies and correct all the information, they are welcome to apply. 

I had to look up what "variance analysis" meant.If I understand the question correctly, you're asking "What went wrong to not hit our 20% target?"

There are also additional costs of operating and maintaining an LLC, like separate bank accounts, annual report filings, tax filings, etc.2.

AND the side you live on you can rent out a room or two depending on the number of rooms in your duplex or you have the option to maintain your privacy and sanity and keep it to yourself.  

Sometimes the tenants are coming from shelters or other communal type of housing where maintaining a space my not be solely there responsibility so maintaining the unit may not be to your liking. 

Is that correct?

HOWEVER; if you aren't going to use your full last name, then it's important to upload a pic to your profile (which you have) The reason being, when someone has a common name, with an initial and you are trying to @mention them, if you have a list of 5 David R's with the stock icon, it's impossible to know which is the correct one.
