That's how many of the larger complexes get funding to buy and rehab buildings,, that the normal small investor can not afford.Section 8 like other government programs has difficult aspects to it to manage, the people on section 8 are like a bushel of apples, some good some rotten to the core, and when mixed together the entire bushel tends to go rotten if the rotten apples aren't tossed out of the bushel.LOTS of paperwork and inspections and the inspectors are just as complicated as the tenants sometimes.

I think it's okay to not have a deluxe backyard, see what the market is demanding.We didn't want to or have the funds to do a full renovation, Here are some things we did when we got our primary ready to rent:-Tore out fiberglass tub and surround in master bedroom-Had new tub and tile surround put in (felt nicer for primary bedroom suite)-New toilets and all new faucets-Hired guy to resurface all kitchen and bathroom countertops-Took down popcorn ceiling and had resurfaced/ painted-Neutral paint and trim throughout (had different colors all over prior)-changed out washer hook-up valves to prevent issues Things I wish we would've taken care of:-regular yard maintenance hired out and baked into rent-LVP flooring throughout (kept mix of tile and carpet)Just did final walkthrough and got keys this morning for tenant moving out.

Do you recommend doing a lease termination letter, just to have something in writing?

My intention was to minimize my reported taxable income after taking expenses against the earnings through the LLC.I don't see how this would benefit you tax wise.In fact, I would be concerned that by mixing personal business (rental property in your name) with the LLC that you could basically nullify the liability protection the LLC offers  allowing anyone who sues you to pierce your corporate veil because of this co-mingling. 

It's not "our" conversation and I personally love your insights, whether I agree with them or not.You know I think you've created your own mix of lifestyle/investment purchase.
