Ten acres in Texas with a mobile home to start is a smart way to get your foot in the door while planning for your dream home. 

There are more details here if interested.I will not tell anyone to do or not to, that is a choice that you will have to make and also it is a choice to work it or not, like any system.

From what I see all the people answering to me here (and there are so many) are just coming against and refusing to agree with my simple statement: "a landlord is not above the law or norms by its personal choice or presumed capability to judge what he don't know" or as well "a landlord cannot deny or miscarriage a service to a stranger without a known valid reason and at the same time pretend to be operating professionally or loyally to the moral"Basically I'm telling if you are not able to do your business correctly it would be better to find someone else than you, mainly when your ideas about "squatter" or fair treatment are coming from ignorance or completely invented. 

She's smart and I would expect she will do a great job with AHP. 

@Rishika Garimella I am a local home inspector and investor in the area. i think Austin is a sleeping giant right now. the rates are really scaring away buyers. but since competition is so low right now, its a great time to snag some property while its not being ripped apart by investors. i think the hutto manor area is a great choice, once that freeway opens up that connects taylor to round rock, it will definitely become a point of interest.

What kind of resources do you recommend for finding a good first choice? 

While you can't take forever and a day, because a desirable candidate has choices, deciding too quickly can be disasterous.

Starting with a single-family home in Kansas City is a smart move, and it sounds like you’re really digging into the numbers, which is super important for making informed decisions.From what you’ve shared, your offer of $140,000 with an 8% interest rate and a 20% down payment seems like a solid starting point.

To invest in Section 8 housing, look at areas such as Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Dayton, choose safe neighborhoods, study Section 8 standards, analyze property types, and explore financing choices.

I don't personally own any properties leased to housing choice voucher recipients but heard from others who are having trouble leasing their properties.
