I only have one section 8 property and have had good luck on having all my suggested rent increases approved.  

If you want to pay off debt faster and increase cash flow, consistent monthly payments might be best.

Dear BP members,I'm in the process of purchasing my first property in Ohio within the next 1-3 months and am seeking information on financing options for a Canadian investing in Ohio.

The best part about Reno / Tahoe Nevada are it's landlord friendly, Real estate taxes don’t reassess on the sale, insurance is low and we continue to have increased in migration, jobs (no state income tax) and our own land constraint issues which prevent the market from getting overbuilt. 

My saving grace, is that mostly everything is pretty new, so hopefully no big problems coming my way...A part of me is inclined to refinance now, which would increase my rental income to $2,300 from the current $650 (I do have access to 20K for emergencies, a credit card).

-always plan for unexpected expenses-attention to detail can emensly increase ARV.

In an effort to further increase the energy efficiency of the property, I had 12 solar panels and a new roof installed.

A far more successful method would be to increase earnings, reduce spending, and save up.

However, I seek advice on several crucial aspects before proceeding further.Firstly, I am unsure about the best approach to financing the purchase.
