If so maybe it's time to sell and reallocate.  

We also do not allow the tenant to patch holes or touch up the paint, because they usually do a terrible job that takes longer and costs more to fix. 

Monty, take a small amount of time to work on your credit daily.

You seem to have done a great job with this property so far.

Hello all -I have been thinking of getting into realestate investment for a while with a goal of generating income stream (today my only income Is through my job - I make decently as a senior exec). 

On the flip side, if you've got a bunch of Section 8 tenants living in a building that's in a neighborhood where a lot of the tenant base has good jobs, high credit scores, and are generally reliable people, you've got the most risky tenants in that tenant base and that ain't what ya want.

My wife and I both have jobs that pay over 6 figures and our monthly living expenses are only around $8K. 

The growing tech sector, infrastructure projects, and diverse job opportunities continue to drive population growth, making Atlanta a promising option for multi-family investments.

This was my first time ever buying property.

The challenge is that non-government jobs are often short-lived.
