I plan to renovate and rent this first property, then refinance and pull out my initial capital, and put that in a second, and so on.

Most of my tenants are paycheck to paycheck and barely making rent now.

., income must be 3X rent, how do you make the calculation for a tenant using a section 8 voucher?

The appraiser determines the market rents. 

She's been renting it for $2,800/month and the condo has a $600 monthly HOA. 

This will continue to drive appreciation and rent prices up.

We feel very confident in our underwriting, but given the jump that we made from SFH to an apartment building, we want to ensure we're not missing steps in our DD/inspection plan.Here's our current plan:1) Have a general inspector complete a Property Condition Assessment.2) Have specialists complete an evaluation of the roof, electrical, foundation, and heat source (2 steam boilers).3) Review financials, all leases, existing service contracts, rent roll, tax assessment, rental certificate, and 12 months of work orders.Here's what I'm not sure about:1) Are there DD items (specifically those that we would request from the seller) that are not captured within #3 above that we should be requesting?

I wish I could afford California because it is where I live but housing is so overpriced none of the rents wouldl cover the mortgage let alone pull in any cash flow.

Section 8 can be great because the tenant is only paying a portion of the rent, but managing the tenancies is not easy, especially a hard no from out-of-state.
