@Ben ClingerHi Ben, I just noticed your post.Toledo just clarified their inspection criteria for section 8 houses and decided they wanted their cake and to eat it too...we don't have to have an interior inspection (since LMHA inspects that during their inspection), but we DO have to pay for a Lead Inspector contractor to visually inspect the exterior of the house and of course we DO have to pay the $45 fee (which is of course what this is all about).LMHA of course inspects the outside of houses along with the inside so the whole lead inspection is redundant.

But keep learning that Jimmy Buffet song, “Living on Sponge Cake”.  

You should only invest if that's the strategy you're interested in doing, and the tax benefits are icing on the cake.

@Matthew Lamoreaux I think if you can find a rental, long-term or short-term, that cash flows well in today's market then this should be a factor that should be viewed as icing on the cake and should be used as a potential solidifier of a deal.

You can’t eat your cake and have it too.)I don’t know you, I have no clue how you run your business.

Occasionally, you will find a homerun in your search and that's icing on the cake. 

I once found a wedding cake on the kitchen counter with ants crawling over it.
