Quote from @Marta Wendel: Thach Nguyen's program is very bad!

We pay hardly any income tax via the REI program. 

The second issue I have with STNL is that if it functions like a bond, then isn’t this a terrible time to buy?

Once you have a shortlist, sign up for an account with each one and test them extensively to see how they function.

The quick good/bad of Section 8:- S8 tenants tend to be rougher on the property (but not always)- Paperwork/inspections/etc. can be burdensome and tough to navigate (especially initially)- People often think FMR rates are guarantee rental rates but that's not the case- Usually the rent isn't 100% subsidized and a lot of people don't realize this- S8 tenants tend to stay a lot longer than cash tenants- Obviously, the guaranteed rent portionOverall, I'm neutral on the program.

@Audrey Sommer it will be challenging to match what a PMC can do.Example: we post to around 30 websites via syndications via two software programs we pay for and also have a marketing team that manually enters a few.The Zillow Group is probably the easiest for a landlord to use.

Cost efficiency while enhancing the design and functionality of the property What was the outcome?

This program has opened up so many doors for me!

Several programs, like Homeward, enable agents to offer cash offers to homeowners.

You'll for sure get those costs later.If you're looking for a sub $300k market in the SE, I'd pursue college towns with good athletic programs and create small STRs but be ready for the seasonality.
