We have many of these in the nice neighborhoods of Chicago and you get easy tenants, rent increases and appreciation.

We are currently building many investment Single Family Homes on independent lots that focus on maximizing rent.

Knowing the rent will likely show up each month—even if the tenant has challenges—removes a lot of the uncertainty that can come with rentals.The people listing this apartment as a “Section 8 property” are likely trying to target buyers who value that stability.

The property's appeal increased dramatically, attracting numerous potential buyers.

Will be interesting to see if you can get rent bump in that area.  

This hidden cost significantly increased my loan’s overall expense, and I only realized it after reviewing the final terms.

A high property tax rate will increase the taxes more quickly as a percentage of total expenses when the property value increases.

May have to increase your budget to 550k range tho. 

If this property is hard to rent, or is functionally obsolescent (only 1 bathroom, no yard, etc), or has deferred maintenance that will be costly, or is in a location that is not appealing to Tenants, then maybe a sale would be a good option in favor of a property that has better Tenant appeal, which will likely increase rent and avoid long vacancies in between Tenants.An option to consider....

Did you look into renting to Section 8 tenants?
