Then renting them to Section 8 Tenants.   

We are just wrapping up on the rehab and plan to rent it out in about a month.  

However, she asked me if I accept the rent assistance.

I have in the past hooked up cameras and paid for wifi until the house sold or rented, but setting  up and then cancelling the service was very expensive too.

This doesn't mean that you shouldn't be ambitious with your objectives, as long as you're realistic.I have years of experience with short-term rentals in Mexico but I'm not sure how useful that can be to you since I invest in beach markets where there is mass tourism and visitors rent for one or multiple weeks so it's fairly different.

She has volunteered to replace it, however it already had a bit of previous damage from repairmen who came to work on the fridge prior to my tenant renting.

Initially, I was thinking I could rent this out to a person/couple or to two friends who might want to be roommates.

Are you looking for renovation loans or rent ready properties ? 

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Kevin - A few thoughts:Revenues - Did you double check the rent amount with a few sources?
