Only thing that popped up for me and it might not ever again is that when Trump shut down the government a while ago it included HUD and I was getting nervous that payments would be delayed. 

A valid government-issued ID is what I require.

With government backed rentals, we are assured not to have our payments disrupted by shutdowns, offsetting any loses during that time.

This aligns with the other responses in the thread, as passive activity losses (PAL) rules govern how these losses are applied across your rental portfolio.

I've worked with government employees, families who have been displaced by fires, and other clients / employees who are my tenant but aren't financially responsible for the lease.

It’s not fair that those people don’t have to register so everyone knows where they live but because sex offenders do it means they don’t have a right to live in nice places when all they want to do is get their life’s back on track but the rest of the world blacklists them or tries to hunt them down when it’s nobody’s business but the police and they should be the only ones who get to know where they live but the government has ruined that and put sex offenders lives at risk by putting their info out for the public even after they served their time.

Her tenant payment comes from a government entity and is $2100 per month. the house was also recently renovated so all the mechanicals are in good shape. 

If you want an in-depth view I would:- Research government statistics (population growth, median prices, appreciation, etc)- Qualitative research- Go to meetups, talk to investors (you won't find it hard to find someone investing out of state in OH)- Use softwares like rentometer, Vestmap, etc that's what I always say.

I think you are over worried about the government coming after you.

However I have experienced a lot of fraud, so govern accordingly.
