I have the privilege of hanging out with the big boys by riding on my partner's coattail.

That skin in the game can be section 8 as it is based on rules to follow and, by abondanating such the tenant will loose the section 8 payment and privilege.

The more I read, the more I began to understand that this investing thing is not something a select few were privileged to, rather, investing was something we should all partake in, if not for ourselves, but for future generations to come.

The payment feature will no longer be available as a standalone feature and they rope you into a $13/$26 per month plan for the privilege continuing to use these services.

Getting others started by helping them with their first investment property or househack would be an absolute privilege!

I would revoke the privilege to have any pets and keep an eye on them moving forward. 

There will always be complainers but that is a whole other topic re privilege, politics and maturity to name a few.

as an example, we got the privilege this year of writing a $7,500 check to catch up on the escrow reserves (on a property we bought 3 years ago for $180K.)I also think that the institutional investors and out of state investors have picked over the market. 

They call it a speculative builder tax/ transaction privilege tax for doing business in the city.

Sell it yesterday, if not sooner, and put the cash you get out of it into a place that DOES cash flow.Rationalizing that she can afford to pay the tenant to live there (negative cash flow), is like saying you work full time at your regular job, and because you have more income than you need, you're willing to take a side job...and pay your employer for the privilege of spending your extra income on them.
