We decided to outsource major tasks such as septic installation, plumbing, heating, and carpentry, while handling smaller projects ourselves—a decision that proved beneficial.

For example do you have a great w2 and can you afford to cover costs of a major repair or 3 months of vacancy?

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

Plus macroeconomics here in Columbus is booming right now because of developments from Intel, Meta, Amazon, Honda, and lots of major companies building out here.

The major pieces of information you are missing include NOI which includes deducting all of your operating expenses from your gross rents sans debt service, market dynamics (what are vacancy rates and asking rents like in the market the building is located in?)

I don't see it as an issue but many still do, at least in my small town where the majority of renters are elderly people looking for low maintenance housing options.

Can you explain the mechanics.I think in majority part it's really about simplicity. 

The details of the incident remain unclear, but they intentionally granted access to someone who subsequently stole major appliances.

In my case I began a “serious” real estate education and experience in 1979 ; by mid 1981 I was able to successfully conclude what for me, at the time, was my first “major” purchase.

@Polat Caglayan The majority of investors who become involved in the section 8 program do so because they purchase lousy real estate and leasing the units to section 8 tenants is the best option on the table.
