Its much harder to turn a property around in 6 months expecting to have 100% of your money returned back to you - but if you focus on the right property focusing on highest and best use with an ADU add (like mentioned), in-fill/lot split, or other rehabs - then hopefully a semi-decent property like that will perform like a champ in a few years.

Curious thoughts on the following scenario.Current SFR with $51k loan at 8.125%, just purchased with around 10% built-in equity on the property, $250 monthly cashflow (post expenses).

I require 650+ Credit, no violent crime or theft, 3X monthly income, and no prior evictions.

Knowing the rent will likely show up each month—even if the tenant has challenges—removes a lot of the uncertainty that can come with rentals.The people listing this apartment as a “Section 8 property” are likely trying to target buyers who value that stability.
