What if I was to incorporate a business that held both my healthcare 1099 and my rental properties? 

I was planning on incorporating my future real estate company to protect myself and have the tax benefits.

@Rory Samuels how do you plan to incorporate other peoples money if your getting a mortgage?

-based  incorporated entity which would mean paying business taxes in the U.S.A., but would give you the freedom to repatriate earnings at a time of your choosing.  

Drive around different neighborhoods you desire to find properties and incorporate your direct mailing this way.

If fees are too low, I would suggest keeping them the same for at least one to two years, then slowly incorporate increases.If you pay cash, make sure that you have some sort of clawback ($$) for a certain amount of time if accounts leave in XXXX days.Will the owner stay a certain amount of time to help in the transition?

I personally find sec 8 a difficult program to incorporate within what I want to do as a landlord and am not interested in the program, you can either choose to or not to.. you can search many posts here on BP about sec 8 .
