One thing I did note is my insurance is $3K a year lower due to the monitored fire suppression system in these larger properties versus my smaller properties that sleep 12 or less built close to the same time.As someone who has lived in Illinois twice, the politicians there don't care if people burn as long as they can tax and spend. 

I never really understood the discrepancy in the sub markets except maybe people can wrap their heads around renting out 1 unit versus maybe they are scared of having more then one tenant?

Need some advise on long term tax strategy as a secondary home (out of state) versus an investment property. 

They refused to accept my terms and said I would need to put down 30% versus the traditional 80/20 with conventional terms.

Will my IDR plan amount be what is factored into my DTI versus a percentage of my loans? 

@Daniel CruzOne thing I have learned from investing in section 506 house flip investments with regard to states is to be aware of states that are judicial foreclosure states versus non-judicial foreclosure states.  

Versus Passive gambling.

How much are really the savings on the mortgage versus the cash flow you are getting?

As I'm new to Section 8, just trying to understand how it actually works, versus what we see on social media :) Lesson #1 - Nothing the government does makes sense and none of the employees have any idea what they are doing.

So I'll wager that if it all does start to unravel it won't be until after a few deals go sour and people start suing each other.
