St Cloud MN Duplex, list/purchase price $259,900market rents $1,610 per unit BUT yes, if one really wanted to sec8 income standards are $1,957 per unit so one could go that direction if wanted be.

@Connor O'Brien CHA does release payment standards that can be found on their website but those are maximums, not guaranteed. 

The rules and payment standards vary significantly from one area to another, so familiarizing yourself with the local housing authority's procedures is key.

And then finally, there is always the option to just claim the regular standard mileage deduction rate of $0.67/mile. 

This motivation lead me and a business partner to start Raise the Standard Property Management.

I find it odd that this isn't a more standardized practice.

Reason why is because FDIC Bankers "Do Not" charge points on traditional programs like primary homes, standard investment purchase and refinance, Second home/vacation homes.Lenders, Brokers all charge points to meet their Loan officer compensation plan (commission).

Is this standard for most major property management companies.

I would look for an experienced agent of my own who understands what is standard for your market.

While technically negotiable, the Sitzer/Burnett case revealed that the industry practice effectively standardized these rates.
