Knowledge is power:Thorough Inspections: Minimize surprises with detailed inspections and due diligence.Strong Screening: Careful tenant selection reduces vacancy and headaches.Diversification: Spread your investments across different locations and property types to mitigate risk.Financial Planning: Maintain a buffer and choose financing options that fit your long-term goals.

When I maintained my position that I wouldn't be paying 10K up front, Dmitri then insulted my section 8 investing knowledge and suggested that if I wasn't ready to move forward, then it was because I didn't understand enough about section 8 to begin with.

Overall kinda ok area, but either you have to be pretty good at landlording or have a very knowledgeable in THIS particular area.

I’m local to the Amarillo area and would be glad to provide local market knowledge if that would be helpful.

@Steven Hamilton II I just want to say how impressed I am with your knowledge and professionalism.
