Makes no sense.

Around here a lot of landlords offer section 8 tenants $300 cash when they move in with $0 security deposit.

They have almost no reviews.With 6-7 residents, how often should I expect to need repairs? 

It’s a jack of all trades here with little to no trade offs/cons when comparing apples to apples to other large STR markets.The key to success here though comes in the knowledge and execution.

If not there are alternative ways to qualify with no FICO.

Attached single-family rentals are especially promising due to lower maintenance costs and higher rental yields.But now think of the families who wouldn't want to live in such conditions, I think there is a future, because demand is no where to be finishing

I was able to take out money with a 4% fee up front and no interest for one year.

@Matt Bertsch no experience with Buildium.

I guess it´s  also a duplex, I think as Jay mentioned it should be no problem to apply for another conventional one.

I got the blank stare of death from the nice lady at the office who had no idea what I was speaking about.
