@Jeffery Jones As someone who owns 6 single-family homes under the Section 8 program and runs a property management company that manages over 100 Section 8 properties, I’ve learned a lot about the ins and outs of the program—not just the idealized version often shared on social media.If done correctly, Section 8 can be a great way to diversify a portfolio.

This platform has played such a key role in my journey over the years.

Columbus is going to be more of an appreciation play and cash flow margins will be tighter in the beginning. 

Sounds more like trying to win a popularity contest, aiming to gain votes and likes from people here that also have something against wholesaling.But OK let me play along.Let's fact-check this:OP: "It’ll truly be strange to even hear people and gurus trying to make big money off it."

This will be a 10 year play.  

I wish there was a system for searching for STR specific things but I have only found something like AirDNA to be the closest even though it's far from ideal for that.

We did not do this and still encounter less than ideal setup the result of our initial setup many years ago.  

I am also curious about when/how an attorney/legal involvement comes into play with this.

Looking for a long term play with rent stability more than making huge cash flow.

Ideally they will have a pool of investors looking for a turn-key property.
