@Bob Avery - agree on the need and real impact of offering to section 8 voucher holders - an aspect of the business we don't hear folks discussing very often. 

A lot of folks that work this are simply brokers and will make a fee for putting you together with Kiavi or lima one..

Prove the deal to each other and if you can do that, the bank will be on board (unless you are both pie in the sky folks, which you guys are not).

I spent years buying pre foreclosures and renting back to the folks i bought them from as after I rescued them.

Just look at what they are doing in CA they are ripping vines out left and right.. younger folks dont drink wine like us boomers. 

There are a few folks out there encouraging some seasoning. 

Now that you have the size of your deal start talking with folks and looking for opportunities.  

You just trusted, but didn't verify.This is an excellent thread to remind folks to do your own damn diligence.

LTR is stable, slow, and risk is low but potentially not as much cash (right away).Comes down to what goals you have and your risk threshhold - I have friends in CO springs who do STR and MTR, and works out great - but also have folks who LTR in that area and it pays for them self and it a great way to save money in places like taxes and build equity.  

Lowering the prices are a good way to get a few folks but don't go crazy so you don't get the dregs who can destroy your place.Now, listing on Furnished Finder.
