It's easy to see why scammers would choose to operate in the very cheap property space, and I don't see this scam working out as well if at all with $100k+ properties.

I feel like having such a low payment and rate make it stupid to choose selling the house, but since I haven't been in this position before, I thought I'd ask here. to d The other consideration you would want to consider is your VA entitlement if you are hoping to buy the next house with a VA loan.

**Selecting Properties**: When choosing a property for Section 8, focus on neighborhoods with strong rental demand.

Therefore, due to the local jurisdiction, sometimes we choose to mutually terminate the lease and write a new one instead of modifying the original by agreement.

Choosing a higher deductible MAY allow you to maximize cash flow, but as you know, every investor's situation is different. 

Miami is still doing well, Fort Myers is adjusting and has lower real estate than 12 months ago, etc..)My simple thought, for what it is worth, is choose a place to live and not invest in:  choose the location you and your family WANT to live in ( because of the schools, taxes, weather, other family there, etc...) and then buy and do real estate there (and get whatever licenses you need once you start third party management).I wish you well!

For context, downtown Alexandria performs super well as a rental market and bringing in $5.5k+ as the monthly rental income if you choose to move out of the househack in the future will be absolutely feasible (depending on the property of course).

On top of this if at all possible I’d recommend choosing specific neighborhoods to become an expert on as opposed to just thinking “anywhere in the San Antonio market could work”.

State your legal theory if you choose to take an adversarial position.
