Two things when being a business owner - hire right, lease right.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases.

It doesn’t matter whether the use is under a lease, a service contract, or some other arrangement.Exceptions.

If the rent amount, due dates, etc. are specified in the lease, there’s no need to provide an invoice.

They do have other options that you can add-on, such as electronic inspection reports, mailing services and e-lease (this one is included if you're a Pro member which I am not) but I haven't found the need for any of those services yet.  

No I didn't install a foam backer rod, wasn't aware of this item, thanks for the tip :)Floor was very clean but not perfectly level as the house is over 100 years old. 

These are the items to look out for with your tax professional.

The property in combination with the local market has resulted in a very large # of applicants having section 8 subsidies.My company has only had a handful of section 8 tenants apply in the past but have never had any that ended up leasing from us.I'm looking for advice as to what questions should we be asking of section 8 tenants?

Hello BP users,Real estate development has been on my radar for years now and I’m 80% sure I’m ready to get into that space.I’ve been a real estate agent for 6 years in residential, commercial leasing and multi-family off market sales.So what is the best way to become a developer?

- Initial paperwork and chasing overworked caseworkers to process it, so tenant can move in- Helping the tenant complete & turn in their required paperwork to start the lease- Annual S8 inspections, which tenants often make difficult to schedule- Dealing with silly maintenance requests because tenant too lazy to change lightbulbs, etc.- Getting tenants to agree to rent increases and turning in all the required paperwork to caseworker, then, you guessed it, chasing them to process it- Dealing with the tenant's "entitlement attitude" that they don't have to follow the terms of the lease, so they move in other individuals and/or get pets without permission.So, a good PMC will charge something more to manage a S8 tenant/property - either a higher percentage or a one-time or annual fee.
