Hi EdwardThe main benefits of section 8 include guaranteed rent payments from the government, which can provide a steady income stream and reduce the risk of vacancies or non-payment.

.- Bulk Purchases & Portfolio Acquisitions: Banks and hedge funds often look to unload non-performing assets in bulk.

The SST doesn't apply for legal 2-flats so if you want to use FHA it's probably better to target those that maybe also have a non-conforming basement or attic unit.This is why the 5% down conventional loan is a game changer for house hackers.

(I also experienced the power of learn by doing buying my 1st investment property, more on that to come.)The Investor Relations Department is Born During my time working with the students and selling performing and non-performing notes, people started asking a lot about the company’s fund opportunities.

If this is simply you not wanting to accept partial payments and the rent is current, stop accepting it - and send a Lease Violation/Notice of Quit for Non-Payment of Rent - and force the full rent to be paid per the lease or start eviction.  

There's likely so much competition at the comps stage that it's commoditized at this point.I would be curious to hear from others, like @Nicholas L. or @Bob Stevens what parts *after* pulling comps they feel could possible be automated without falling into non-scalable traps like iBuyers ran into once they tried scaling their algorithms.

In those cases where a tenant suffered a minor setback and is back on track, if they are scheduled for a hearing before they're evicted they will often pay before that or when they see the notice on the door, but only if you file relatively soon.It really is good screening and filing quickly and consistently that minimize nasty non-payment issues in just about any kind of market. 

There are large areas in the direction of the flight paths that do not have dense populations so it’s mostly a non-issue.

Common sources of such properties include:Foreclosures: Homes that have been repossessed by banks due to non-payment.Distressed Properties: Homes that are in poor condition and need a lot of work.Auctions: Properties sold at auction for below market value.Off-market Deals: Properties that aren't listed on the MLS but are available for sale through direct outreach or networking.The key is to buy a property at a price low enough to ensure that even after renovations, the home will appraise for a higher value.2.

Lock-out, should they continue to not come even, would be typically less than 14-days.Unless the tenant comes even with the rent (which would result in dismissal of the non-payment of the case), there is generally limited defense to this process.
