My breakdown is about 1/4 Section 8, 1/4 non profits and the rest are regular folks renting .

It might take a bit of digging, but they're out there.As for private lenders, there are definitely genuine folks who are open to wraps.

I treat folks with respect and I address legitimate issues promptly.

If the PM is competent they’ll have the necessary resources to get these folks out of your unit asap.

I've got a clsoe contact.. a seasoned realtor down there who's helped investors navigate the post-storm market successfully.And hey, if you ever want to chat about investing in other markets like Phoenix, where I've been helping folks find great opportunities, or even places like Austin and San Antonio, I'm all ears.

Since you’re considering Tahoe, where you might use the place as a short-term rental when you’re not there, it’s also good to outline how you’ll handle personal use versus renting it out.I’ve seen folks succeed with this by treating it like a business, even if you're all friends.

You seem like a seasoned investor, but many folks hold the properties all in their own name and while you can do an LLC transfer, being able to "wipe" your portfolio and start a new as a smarter investor then when you started is really nice if you can do it in a tax efficient way 

@Alethia Hines I don't have any direct experience, but one person I know that did have success in this sector had made great connections with city county folks.

Will hopefully revisit in a couple weeks when I have better clarity from the folks.

We actually had folks crashing in the driveway in vans and pickups with camper shells all the time when I was house hacking in Boulder and just got lucky with the neighbors.
