Is this ultimately a land play? 

For a new agent to land a listing they typically over promise a seller a high price to win it and then spend money trying to find the magical buyer to purchase it.

Originally listed above $200k, we landed at $171k.

Although I know most sec 8 landlords use it because of the perception of guaranteed rents.As a small home builder I really dont know how they are going to lower the cost of new construction housing unless the govmit subsidizes it somehow.. basically the price of home components are very sticky they only go up. with the xception of lumber that will go  up and down through out the year..

I know this is above and beyond what most municipalities require, but being fair will make the whole process easier.Additionally, a new landlord can reduce the 60-90-day notice by offering more moving assistance (cash and/or labor) if they move sooner rather than later.

NY isn’t the best state for landlords, but if you screen tenants well it isn’t all that bad.Once you pick a market find a rockstar agent.

@Travis Boyd why does your FIL want to retire from landlording?

The letter also states the total non-rent items currently owed by the tenant, such as accumulated late fees or repair charges.Also very important, the tenant states they have no unresolved issues with their current landlord, except as listed in a space provided, and they have no current plans to cancel their lease under the Service Members Civil Relief Act or for any other reason. 

So now you’re making $750/yr being a landlord.

Land Ed is one phase of ground-up development.
