I found houses that had not been well kept up.

So I just closed on a duplex a couple days ago & Im going to be house hacking.

I have seen this same house that is vacant (all the classic signs) I have located the owner ( I have not reached out to her yet).

Spend a little more money than you might have been planning to, buy in a better area (i.e. not a “turn key” 100k house off the mls), and self manage.

But they were selling an expensive house in California and had horrible credit.

Best thing is to call the housing authority that manages the voucher program in your city/county.

When I was renting (mostly houses), one of the first things I did when moving in was re-key the locks, then provide the landlord with a copy of the key.

Purchasing a property for your child while they attend college can be a strategic investment and a great way to provide them with stable housing.

VRBO bookings have been down Airbnb bookings have been up, but it has its own problems like siding with a guest who trashed my house with unauthorized party , truly if I had the time I would try to get off these platforms and go direct to customer, easier said than done. 

***depending on how far the house is from the coast, you mayalso be required to have a separate Wind or Hurricane deductible.
