(Think how a normally well-behaved class acts with a substitute teacher.)  

I have tried to help him out by trying to get a tenant in there early, and again by offering to refund a few days of rent if he agrees to surrender unit a few days early, and he is now behaving like a sore loser because it didn't work out exactly the way he wanted it to.  

We will be having our monthly meetup This Saturday at 11am.

There is another factor that contributed to the class A and B rental stability in Las Vegas: eviction laws.Eviction LawsIncentives are strong determiners of how people will behave.

Like @Chris Reeves states, there is usually an expiration date or possibly a balloon date coming and the worst possible scenario would be having to sell or refinance in a down market.I'm curious to hear what others have done.

We expect to close next week.In between I signed a contract for another property, where the seller is the mortgage broker (not the one for the first property) (mmm... may be I should not have done that).The problem is that when I told mortgage broker 1 that I signed a contract for another property and broker 2 pulled the credit he got upset (may be rightfully) because now we will have to disclose that new contract and explain we will be having new debt.

My experience with people whose first words out of their mouth is "I'm a Christian...." generally behave in the least Christ like ways imaginable. 

The quality of tenant is the variable, most people that need section 8 are good people who just haven't quite figured out how to improve their situation in life, they just want a place to live and will generally behave if they have a solid, clean, safe place to live.Make sure you check local laws and rules around section 8 so that you don't get yourself in hot water, perhaps get in touch with the existing owner/property manager and see what there experience has been with section 8 and especially the current tenants. 

Just dont think a D grade property will behave like a C+ or better. 

Texas in general seems to be have a bullish future.
