Your opinions/experience on this situation are greatly appreciated.

If your not shopping you loan I feel you arent doing your job as an investor. 

In my experience, the average Section 8 resident behaves differently than the average market rate resident, and the government-backed rent is not worth the added hassle.  

Anyone have experience renting a Non-Conforming triplex unit that meets Code through Section 8? 

If so how was your experience?

@Kegan SchollFrom my experience, if you're a 22-year-old house hacker, Texas and similar markets can be great for room rentals thanks to population growth, strong demand, and tourism.

Stocking your Airbnb is an opportunity to create a standout guest experience.

Value and rents should eventually increase to turn cashflow positive and build your wealth.You're next learning experience will be, now that you are out of day-to-day management, how will you be able to handle the inevitable expense challenges?

Shop LTV (or cLTV which is combined Loan To Value, basically your first mortgage and 2nd mortgage combined loan to value), rates, payment terms, time to close,  and draw period (how long you can go into and out of your heloc). 

That might include things like adding units, converting commercial space to residential, or finding ways to boost income (like adding parking).The key is recognizing opportunities while walking the property, and that takes experience.
