Sometimes pulling out equity and reinvesting it elsewhere..maybe in a smaller, more agile asset..can give you the cash flow boost you’re after without giving up a solid property.Improving the property’s current performance by making it more appealing to tenants or tweaking lease structures could give you a nice bump.

Single-family homes, however, appeal to investors and homebuyers, giving them broader market demand and more potential for appreciation.The bottom line: When deciding between multi-family and single-family properties, focus on actual net cash flow, not dogma.

But I understand the pitch and the appeal to those without any real experience of being a section 8 landlord. 

The idea of my credit union where I bank holding these loans and servicing them and never selling them, keeping it as simple as possible is what sounds the most appealing to me after these experiences.  

I am not telling you to do one thing or another  Also, i believe that FHA will not allow renovations to a home unless it’s already livable with minimal to no repairs visually needed but go check.

@Shaylynn O'Learyi understand the frustration of living in a high cost market and looking at the appealing price points in those other markets. 

It seems like a win-win: tenants benefit financially, and landlords strengthen tenant relationships while making their properties more appealing. 

This is appealing as I want to spread my cash reserve as much as possible. 20 percent down each time will really limit my progress.  

Real estate can be an appealing investment option in these uncertain times.

When I started investing, I found it appealing because it's a tangible asset you can see and manage.
