Many of those properties don't actually produce income due to turnovers, vacancy, maintenance and damages and you're lucky if they appreciate enough to keep up with inflation.

This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return. 5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space. 6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.

.: @Edward Toomey V and @Tyson Jones What I like about RentRedi is that they have a live webinar regularly.

I also advise participating in regular meetings with them.

This will allow you to qualify solely based on the income that is produced from the rent of the property.

I put the cash from the refi back into more mutlifamily units that produce more rental income. 

It seems that to be on Section 8 you need to look for a job on a regular basis.

Section 8 guarantees part of the rent, which is great for income stability, but the building will have regular inspections to meet Housing Quality Standards (HQS).

Cheap money and low rates produce euphoria, which increases flow of money to an asset, which pushes up the price to uninvestable levels.I think it's going to get worse than better in the short term.Gino
