It's great that you're starting to gather information early.

Quote from @Polat Caglayan: I would like to be informed about the section 8 program.

Thanks for the information.

or what details can you share about how you package everything together...that would be great information for the community!

Verifying last 2-years of rental history and income/employment extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Tenant Default: 20-30% probability of eviction or early lease termination.Section 8: Class D rents meet program requirements, often challenges to pass Section 8 inspection.Vacancies: 20%+, depending on market conditions and tenant screening.Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciation.Where did we get our FICO credit score information from?

Check out Brandon Hall and Nathan Sosa on LinkedIn and their podcasts (TaxSmart REI) are VERY informative.

If you think that the forums and the books have the same information and the same quality, do you read books at all?

It's important to stay informed about developments in the areas you're considering, as well as any potential changes in regulations or economic conditions.

If you ever want to get into a tenant nightmare of costly potential litigation become a landlord, have the ac go out in Phoenix in July, and inform the tenant that you just don’t have the funds to replace it!.    

Thank you all for sharing such wonderful resources and valuable information.
