@Sam Sala - This is a great time to invest in hard assets like rental properties and markets like Jacksonville where there is high population growth have definitely benefitted investors the most. 

If you have equity and can benefit from a lower rate I would look into doing a refinance to fix the issues.

Overall Cost-Effectiveness: Is there any real financial benefit to taking this route, or is it essentially the same as just selling?

There are many benefits with section 8 in order for the tenant to be placed in one of my properties they go through a process with the committee then when living in the property they need to abide by lease rules and keep the property in shape, if major damage is made or neglect to the property by the tenant they may losE their voucher from section 8, so it’s a very good idea to go this route and food for thought you always know your property is up to date safety wise and livable with annually inspections. 

Buda has been experiencing growth due to its proximity to Austin, which could benefit future property values.2.

If it’s possible to scale back your involvement or bring in a partner/employee to manage the day-to-day, you could still benefit from the income while focusing more on real estate.Cash Flow vs.

The only benefit you'd get from a fideicomiso is asset protection so you have to decide if it's worth the cost.

But if you want access to the benefits that people like me have contributed to, and collectively spent decades and god knows how many millions of dollars building, why would you think you should get access to those items for free? 

No, the head of the Fed is appointed by the President but is a private business.Their purpose isn't to benefit society, it is to keep banks from failing.

What are your thoughts on this approach, considering the potential benefits and drawbacks?
