Section 8 is no golden ticket, even now.

I have a military friend that got leave denied when they unexpectedly went to a new command with almost no notice (she was pregnant)....no problem here is an already approved leave request and flight itinerary for tickets I bought 3 weeks ago (both fake and she was planning on driving).

For an investor doing primarily single family homes would you recommend they use 1 checking account for rent deposits and regular expenses such as mortgage, interest, property taxes, and maintenance and then use 1 savings account for reserves that get drawn from for bigger ticket capex items?

I had the same installer refill two separate systems in the same day, he charged my 2x's as much for the older unit because his cost of Freon was higher.We have found we just have to put aside 10-20% of our rental income into a separate savings account knowing that we will have big ticket items like this go. 

Cell phones, cable TV, restaurants, car payments, lottery tickets and booze...all irresponsible luxury expenses. 

When I did do signs for my residential properties, during business hours they would take my signs and then issue me a ticket.

In addition to the increase in crime, arrests are way down and even traffic tickets are down by almost 20,000 (which cost the city 2 million dollars in revenue according to local news).

The only chance maybe is if its been on the mkt for 2 years, NO ONE wants to touch it and they'd probably listen to someone who's listing their Powerball tickets as their proof of funds!

Big ticket developers enter negotiations with local authorities as part of the purchase & transaction.
