For rental property owners, the court will pay particular attention to the total net income of your rental.So, how is rental income calculated, and how does that play into child support payments? 

Then there are the challenges with Section 8 tenants paying utilities and taking care of their rental property.

Partnering with someone might also be beneficial, especially if your income is variable and you find a partner with complementary strengths.Purchasing through an LLC could provide liability protection and some tax benefits, but it might make financing a bit trickier, so weigh the pros and cons carefully.

I get the 'professional silence', and have been told imperiously by other landlords that I should just not respond and ignore rambling, and responses definitely encourage more.However I find I have tenants that demand attention, if I don't answer they continue to get louder and angrier, and begin trying to come up with ways to force me to answer and get involved.  

Be careful out there....some of the new builds are not comparable to the old builds....many of the newer ones are all siding, no brick, no light fixtures or ceiling fans...just LED recessed lighting...no doorbell, no garage door opener, no attic stairs, one piece tubs, vs tiled baths, no landscaping, no trees, and on and on....they've taken out virtually every single cost.   

The national programs just need to hit marketing goals and they don't care what your result is.

No one cares.
