my legal record is squeaky clean. the real answer to why i don't get section 8 is probably because i'm very disorganized and erroneously thought it was for people who are officially disabled. i will look into it some more, thanks. another layer to this is that i'm hoping to live in a place where i can work on the vintage furniture that i sell online which rules out public housing and i think that section 8 would add to the reasons that landlords don't usher me in. 

I've been just getting started in the whole prospect of real estate investing only a few months now, so I'm very new and ambitious. 22, full time salesman at a furniture and flooring store in Massachusetts but I've only been here for a few months as well so the plan was wait until I've been here at least a year and save up that 3.5% to house hack a duplex in the area.

I would not furnish long term rentals, so if the owner handles executive leasing, can you buy it and sell all the furniture?

Turnkey vacation rental including profile and furniture $350k.We owe about 110k and our mortgage payment are $700/mo.

@Mark Mahoney in my state at least, no it must be part of the home not just an armoire or similiar piece of furniture to be a legal bedroom.

Once we got all the furniture out and did a walk-thru with our property manager we had some hard decisions.

You can hire a company or do yourself but use proportion furniture to fix property and rooms.

No second showings to measure for furniture or because "we just aren't sure".

I"m thinking I just need my rental dwelling coveraged but  not the furniture. 

It is absolutely possible to do well in this business, but it takes a lot of up-front work, hustle and some capital: to find the right properties, close the leases, finance the deposits and furniture, furnish the properties, bring in the bookings, get the ratings and then do it all again with the next unit.
