Akron is not an appreciation play.

@Aaron Davis My personal experience is that non section 8 tenants don't play well with section 8 tenants.Frank

The agent also mentioned that there is also the question of foul play that may come up, such as a scam.  

I'm very happy for it and (bonus!)

I feel like I'm folding a pair of pocket aces, but I have to play the game with discipline, or you lose your stake.

The shed should be entered as an asset and deducted in full via bonus depreciation.

Again, this is like playing the lottery.

So, here at the 6 month check in, here are the things I've been doing since January 2024: *Anchored everything to my WHY, including the motivations and long-term strategy *Joined a local REI group hosted by my church*Researched tax lien investing in Harford County, MD and decided to not play in that space this year*Read a few REI books (Rich Dad Poor Dad, One Rental At A Time, Building Wealth One House at a Time, Wealth Without Cash, Building Real Estate Wealth in a Changing Market)*Subscribed to a bunch of good YouTube channels (BP, ORAAT, Ken McElroy, Coach Carson...)

That means yes, "pay-for-play".

Minimum bedroom square footage requirements come into play (a quick google search shows Texas having an 80sqft minimum size requirements for a single occupancy bedroom).
