Details depend on how you partner and so on.

Expecting the landlord to take the time to do a detailed check of the cleanliness and then do an a-la-carte cleaning is not a reasonable expectation, in my opinion.  

I love it for the guaranteed rent, tenant stability, additional accountability with the housing authority and large demand for Section 8 housing without enough supply.With strong screening, I'm able to find great tenants and Im not owed any rent.Cons you will often hear is that the tenants are harder on your properties (doesnt have to be the case in my experience if you screen really well), the Housing Authority is a pain to deal with (this depends on a couple things - how well run your local PHA is and how good you are at handling process & details) and the extra inspections/red tape make the niche unprofitable (see what I said above about Housing Authorities).Done right, I believe Section 8 is one of the most stable & profitable.

This is currently the only thing I am actually decisive about.I think I'm struggling with analysis paralysis combined with generally being overwhelmed by all of the different metrics and data to look at.Specifically, I'm currently trying to narrow my market within Connecticut, but I am getting stuck on how to determine a "good" market.

Hey Cody,Personally I Would recommend changing the timing of the messages a bit.I would send your intro message with instructions and details immediately upon booking, this gives them plenty of time to think of questions, and makes sure they know the rules and details right away.
