Section 8 can give higher rental revenue but there are a few things to keep in mind. 1.

His point on the revenue perspective is right on. 

However, when it comes to compensating a developer or engineer, a 33% cut of the gross revenue can be seen as on the higher end, though not necessarily excessive depending on the specifics of the deal.Here’s a breakdown of what to consider:### 1.

As we have 100+ year old trees on the property, as well as a pond and year round stream, I think it could also be used for a tiny-home or tiny-office (commercial) community, which would allow me to maintain control of my property long term and providing recurring revenue to me (my company). 

@Dennis GallagherAs for the 50% Rule (where your expenses equal about 50% of your revenue) - I might argue that the flaw in the theory is you will walk away from many great wealth building opportunities just because it doesn’t meet the formula.

Additional Details:The property is in a desirable area with good amenities nearby.STR data from AirDNA shows decent revenue potential, but the lack of comps makes me hesitant.I’m looking for a balanced approach that minimizes risk, even if STR performance doesn’t hit expectations.If anyone has experience investing in Cincinnati or navigating markets where STR data is sparse, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

The actual potential value of the property is disproportionately higher than you would expect based on current revenue.  

However, when you factor in the HELOC, we have a negative / break-even cash flow (HELOC payments are about 25% of the revenue from both).

For MTR, the best way to increase nightly revenue is to charge for pets!

As you know property is expensive and you don't have a business running that generates revenue.
