Have you had any experience working with Section 8 tenants/programs?  

So don't leave anything in an MTR that is irreplaceable.In addition to security deposits, you can also use the AirCover program for Airbnb bookings and third party services like Waivo and Safely that provide mini insurance per booking.

Which S8 "guru" program did you drink their kool-aid?

The loan programs of your buyers will dictate how much of a credit you are allowed to apply to their closing but it certainly helps to move inventory when you offer an incentive. 

Then a few days later got another email asking if we wanted to invest in another note program!!   

I'm scratching my head because I feel like the program, least locally here in San Antonio, TX, tells all the landlords to put our listings there, but the tenants don't look there.

Depending on the lender and program your biggest hurdles might be credit score and income and time in job. 

not sure how sec 8 works exactly in cleveland but in areas I owned sec 8 leases could only be written for a year.. also its only guaranteed if the home pass's inspection and the tenant stays on the program etc etc.. if you have a GOOD sec 8 tenant then yes its very predictable.

There are hundreds of DSCR program out there.
