@Sam GroomsSam, I'm newer to this and don't know the difference between what I read and reality.  

Looking for referrals/suggestions for pros that can help turn this idea in to reality.

Hello members !I have a 3 BDR one bath  house in Maple Heights Ohio that I am considering renting to section 8 tenant .CMHA chart for the house zip code showing a max rent of around $2000 for 3 bedroom.I know market r...

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

I know people think they can expedite their learning curve by trying to do it in a weekend but reality is that is not the case.

The short version: looks like it will cash flow on paper but in reality with repairs and potential tenant issues it won't, very affordable purchase prices (Indianapolis range is $120,000 to low $200,000 depending on the Class C area or distressed properties under $100,000, many times older homes with sewer line and foundation issues, stolen AC units (get a cage for the unit), Class C is volatile.

It's great you are wanting to invest and have investments BUT the reality is you have to make money to invest.

Reality is that not that many landlords will be the end users.

In reality tenants would use each other's cans so they wouldn't have to take theirs out, OR for retribution, because another tenant used their cans.
