I selected the real estate agents forum!

The fact is, with standard requirements appropriate for the rental (class B, C, or D), most Section 8 folks will self-select out.

I try my best to be selective and avoid guests like you.Key is to have an honest listing. 

I would tell them to pound sand, and I think your rentals will benefit from the new property manager that you select. 

Only a select few residential agents that will physical run numbers and returns for you.

You should always get 2-3 before selecting a contractor and reviewing their scope of work.

@Coby Rhoden You need to come up with the list of things you need from PM and select appropriately.

If you are looking into apartment or multifamily investing, Joe Fairless's "The Best Ever Apartment Syndication Book" is a wealth of information and specifically, Chapter 15 covers a, "Six Step Market Evaluation Process" which is spot on for almost any property type.In general, unemployment, population, landlord/business friendly markets, rent growth, job diversity, population age, supply/demand, cap rates and price per unit are some good items to look at when selecting a market.

Refinances have higher instances of getting jammed up than purchase mortgages, mostly due to self selection bias (a typical FTHB has spent a year making all their financials and credit pretty, when folks refinance they are their 'normal' selves). 

@Jerry Padilla its a single family investment property, 80% LTV doesnt require PMI, can you tell me if selected banks offer Freddie Mac loans or all of them do and i can just call them up and ask for 80% LTV?
