As of today however due to a signed affidavit we will be given a court date to follow through with eviction and perform said strategy above with section 8.  

It could very well be its all lost but seems like a big jump to conclusions by investors that basically did very high interest rate investing and expected  CD like performance..

With minor cosmetic upgrades, he increased the rents, and now it’s one of the best-performing properties in his portfolio.I also had a client in Providence last year who bought a fourplex.

@Ben Cochran I hope you have factored STR tax savings into your cashflow and ROI as it can be significant.Leveraging equity to purchase a short-term rental (STR) in Tampa Bay can diversify your portfolio and potentially generate strong cash flow, but it also increases your financial risk.While your properties hold significant equity, adding debt from HELOCs or a DSCR loan could strain your finances if STR performance fluctuates or costs rise.

As a "retired" public accountant and tax consultant I perform a lot of detailed ROI analysis for my clients. 

For doing an STR well the larger properties are best and it needs to stand out amongst competition to perform well. 

The investor in me has to be wiser about the decision and not worry about sentiment, look to reinvest in something else that will perform better for my family's future. 

@Kyle Carter we manage around 700 doors, with 92 of them being S8.When S8 applicants are properly screened, they can statistically perform a decent amount better than cash-tenants.

If you can just make sure you are buying right, everything else falls into place eventually.There are markets that perform better than others, but unless you are holding long-term or building rentals, you shouldn't really care too much since flipping is all about buying at the right price for that market:
