I am sure others will have different views but I can tell you from 22 years of lending on these assets in the mid west and rust belt.

Those states have "income source" as a protected class and as far as I know are only the west coast (CA, OR, WA) and the new england area (MA, CT, VT, NJ ect) Account Closed  In most states you are not required to accept Sec 8, and as such if you choose not to you could deny processing an applicant that is using a voucher.

@Brandon West, This is by no means legal advice - but my lawyer in AZ who helped me setup my LLC for my rental property told me to just reissue the title w/ the county recorder in the name of the LLC, update Title Insurance to reflect the LLC, and not notify the lender.

Hi BP fam! Newbie here looking to get into the long-term rental game. My wife and I have been considering jumping in as a side hustle as we are both mid-career (I'm 41 and she's 38) and we want to open up some optiona...

I understand most East coast and mid west sellers and buyers insist on going to the closing office and sitting around a table..

property radar does this on the west coast .. not sure if they have gotten to the east coast yet.its a paid for subscription but its uber powerful with many many features and notice of defaults are one of them. 

If my property doesn't get rented, I still own primo  property in five points Raleigh or east nashville or coastal West Palm Beach.

There are lots opportunities in easy bay township or downtown Condos (where str is allowed.) direct west of TC has lots str experience opportunities (water front/ farm house , wineries), direct east close to Williamsburg has great opportunities even for long term summer rental to the horse show participant (June to Sep).

I'm currently living in Crown Point Indiana and hope to invest in surrounding Northwest Indiana (Hobart, Merrillville, Portage, Lake Station) and maybe eventually the South West suburbs of Chicago.I'm mostly interested in flipping single family homes and purchasing smaller multi families. 

I live in NYC but open to a lot of the mid-west/central markets given lower entry price.If you're looking to get started like myself, or even wants to invest together - feel free to reach out!
