BUT, the mere fact that you are attempting to place a lender in a position in which they will now ostracize all other non-LGBTQ customers is a clear violation of the same regulations put in place to protect you and all other cousmers in the first place and is why they will decline to work with you in this manner... you are forcing them to encroach on the rights of other cosumers to access their services, which is a violation of the cosumer safety regulations impossed on them.  

She went in-depth to talk about maximizing rent and correcting all the safety issues that were mentioned in the inspection report.

Our property managers who were routinely asked to achieve nearly impossible asking rents could not understand that the budget was not infinite.I tried to reduce the process (and friction) to focus on safety, functionality and curb appeal.

We lease by the bed and are concerned that students will lock their roommates out, causing additional safety concerns and lots of headaches. 

One example might be running a meth lab at your rental.In my experience judges come down harder on lease violations, particularly for health and safety reasons, than they are non-payment of rent. 

I'm worried for her safety and those of the other tenants. 

Hi Adam,I've always been a real estate guy but exposed my personal portfolio quite heavily to a regional bank ETF.I guess time will tell if I'll be a "Hero" or "Zero" lolCome on you Fed and reduce those rates 😁Real estate is and always will be my bread and butter tho.You can't beat the safety of a "brick and mortar" investment per se.My best advice would be if you are going to go down the path of investing in out of state rentals to have a growth mindset.Buying 1 or 2 isn't worth the risk or hassle and you might as well invest in your own back yard.10+ years in the industry and my most unsatisfied investors are the one's that build smaller portfolio's.If a property goes vacant and takes a few months to get it back performing, with a small portfolio that could impact cashflow of 30-50% for that year.Our investors that own 7,8 or 10+ properties, don't even feel it if 1 or 2 go vacant.Just my opinion and wishing you much success

We manage around 400 units and have very few Section 8.Some companies and investors build their entire strategy and portfolio around Section 8 and it seems to work well for them.Always underestimate your income and overestimate your expenses.Give yourself an extra margin of safety also.Section 8 has some weird rules that have to be abided by so you might incur extra Capex long term costs.Much success

The US doesn't exactly have the best reputation for safety anymore in the international community, including Mexico. 

Major code or environmental or building and safety violations carry over to the new owner (that's you) - stick to the easy stuff. - Those are some initial things to think on.
