Quote from @Eve Favorse: Thanks @Katherine Chinelli, I’m happy to report that my offer was accepted! 

That unit with the waitlist is the only pet-friendly home (duplex) with a fully fenced-in yard accepting more than 1 pet, including larger animals. 

There isn't enough information in here about the current state of the house to be able to advise you, but I would think #3 is a definite no as it seems unnecessary from a cost perspective although that market has scale to accept it.

@Nathan NoorlunRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

So, what if the tenant never accept the mail?

Quote from @Michael Smythe: Besides MANY self-labeled "gurus" exaggerating their success, many of them just supply readily available info.If you're too busy to find the info and are willing to pay for it, no problem as you accept their time vs money solution.REGARDING S8 GURU ISSUES SPECIFICALLYMost of them don't share all the facts about how Section 8 actually works.They claim you can get HIGHER rent from S8 tenants vs private-paying tenants.Why would the government allow our tax dollars to be spent this way?

VC Firms and buyers would be looking for a portfolio that doesn't just have 1 or 2 streams of income, but rather also having the direct bookings and social media presence.There may not be many buyers who would purchase a 10-15 property portfolio, but if you scale to 30-50 or even 75-100+ Owned Units, I would think that VC / Private Equity firms may be interested.

If anything, when you accept rentals in the higher-end neighborhoods, the rent rate exceeds the voucher limit, meaning the resident has to have their own income in order to qualify.

But only about 2/3 accept the extensions.
