I'm in favor of a higher bar before posting but I think it's a minority position. 

An action that gives enough financial incentive and relief that it DOES adhere "for public good", and makes the entire thing a net positive for the thousands upon thousands of dislocated persons AND don't forget, business's.

We will use the high end of this range ($100k)   This implies the initial negative equity position is $150k  $150k (initial negative position)/$350 (cash flow) takes 428 months to recover the initial negative position (35 years).  

If that co-signer isn't in a position where you can force them to pay if things go sideways, then the fact that they co-signed is just a promise and you can't cash a promise!

Hi Cathy,San Diego is a great market to invest in and there are tons of people doing it but yes you may have trouble seeing positive cashflow in the beginning.

I have found that most have had a positive response to having section 8 tenants.

The reason for this is there is certainly a lot of heavy lifting of resources required by a property management team to bring on a new resident including rent collection, setting proper expectations, accounting and building a positive relationship in the first month.As far as the quick re-rent of your home, I was hoping that would be something in which you'd see the value of working with us.
