Quote from @Michael Smythe: Besides MANY self-labeled "gurus" exaggerating their success, many of them just supply readily available info.If you're too busy to find the info and are willing to pay for it, no problem as you accept their time vs money solution.REGARDING S8 GURU ISSUES SPECIFICALLYMost of them don't share all the facts about how Section 8 actually works.They claim you can get HIGHER rent from S8 tenants vs private-paying tenants.Why would the government allow our tax dollars to be spent this way?

@Natalia Perlova if the switch is in a common area and you are having trouble with the tenant especially if you think they switched the burner off deliberately (it should be a bright red switch plate in our area labeled oil burner).

I think the freedom of not paying your primary mortgage would be a huge stress relief and allow you to deploy cash quicker in the future and feel safer taking risks when you know your own living situation is covered.On the rental side, I know the magic ingredient in real estate is time and the sooner you get properties, the sooner they appreciate and are paid off by tenants and 5+ rentals 20-30 years from now would definitely be worth more than the one primary.Would love anyone's thoughts on how you would go about this situation!

It is one of the ingredients you need to take seriously no matter what kind of marketing you do!

I also have no idea what room I'm looking at since they aren't labeled. 

Some servicers label your loan as troubled and they sell it off ASAP.

My friend in Austin was telling me how he once lost track of funds because he used only one main bank account.. that got messy real fast.According to something I read in Forbes, many banks let you label accounts in a more flexible way.

Long term vision can trump current cash flow.So I will proudly take the label of property hoarder.

The two plan drawings should call out everything to be removed and clearly label the scope of work to be completed.
