Huge thanks to the community for all the support as I am glad to give back!

Hi all, New to the group, but happy to be here! 

I'm excited about making this investment work but want to explore all options to make the best decision.

It's all pretty easy honestly.Vrbo and Airbnb makes it easy to manage.

Hi All! 

4. what all more is involved with Section 8 tenant than a normal tenant moving in from paperwork or procedure point of view?

I would think your first stop would be with your property manager to see what data they can share.One of the reasons for hiring a property manager is so you don't have to deal with all of this stuff.

Seems like all 3 markets are competitive, with Louisville being slightly cheaper than the other 2 markets I mentioned. 

Remember, C/D located properties generally appraise once improved for significantly more than they will actually sell in an arms length transaction so you can go to many C/D neighborhoods, successfully complete the BRRRR method but deal with  all of the operational difficulties of the asset class and then fail to achieve a sale figure remotely close to the favorable appraisal  that allowed for the proceeds to be returned through the refinance. 

Also be mindful of existing or proposed restrictions - I don't recall anything extreme proposed in Ludlow or Dover, but Wilmington is being very aggressive in all but eliminating STRs.
