Section 8 would tend to carry higher repair and as a result, additional vacancy.OP’s definition of cash flow is rent minus piti.  

Quote from @Dan Huang: @Tyler Sweet I am a firm believer in the disruptive value of blockchain technology and decentralization, and a crypto-friendly realtor in Las Vegas. 

Going through my real estate journey I have learned a lot, I am 24, a veteran and a graduate from Temple University,I started with aspirations of investing on a property and making a quick flip.My problem lied with fear of failing, my capital and my savings.I decided I wanted to learn the real estate market and know the ins and outs before I would make a bold choice on buying my first real estate home.

I have a W-2 Job, capital saved up for a down payment (or two), and a buy box based on my affordability.

I do not think enough coverage is going to the people who are fighting this fight -that job is tough and a big uphill battle to fight these fires. 

Might have indeed had $1.3 million and still working for the man, and a pot of $$ that I still couldn’t access without the gubmit telling me when, how, and how much. 

That’s correct, a foreigner can buy property through a Mexican corporation, which is a great option for those investing in multiple properties or running a rental business.Key Points I'd like to add to your post:Setup Costs: $1,500–$3,000 USD.Ongoing Costs: $1,000–$2,000 USD/year for accounting and tax filings.Benefits: Allows tax deductions for expenses like maintenance, repairs, and management.Best for: Multiple properties or income-generating investments.For a single property for personal use, a fideicomiso is often simpler and more cost-effective due to its lower maintenance requirements and feesUltimately, choosing between a corporation and a fideicomiso comes down to your investment strategy.

Also pro photos and a PMS with listings on Expedia, Booking.com and AirBnB. 

They are always leased here even for the corporate stations where they have a convenience store, a Popeyes or the like and a car wash.

Not likely), vacancy (@ 8% for me), and a possible PM (10% normally).I recommend you reach out to a local seasoned investor and have them run your #s with you, as the #s depend on how you manage it (how hands on you are) and also local pricing.
