My mother is an agent in SB; she enjoys working with investors a lot, she also knows construction fairly well, and really goes the extra mile. 

Please chime in with any advice you have that might help me save (or make) and extra few bucks along the way. 

In the past when I did videos, I used Youtube and had to edit the videos myself so it was a few hours extra worth of work.

We state Debits for Unpaid Rent, Unpaid Utilities, Unpaid Fees, Missing Items, Damages, Extra Cleaning, Extra Trash Removal, Other.We charge for everything we can, if it is legitimate and reasonable to do so.

thank you for the insight Dan at this point I am looking into different ways to get funding so once I do that and then have some extra for contingency I will be ready to get my feet wet!

The biggest complaints I hear from people towards management companies is difficulty in reaching the manager and a lack of good reporting.

The home can have up to THREE extra Units - but if it does have more than two, there will be a self-sufficiency test whereby your mortgage would need to be 100% covered within 75% of appraised rents from those other Units.

You might have to calculate some extra days on market, especially if your home isn't renovated competitively with the market, but it will be well worth the wait. 

Their are two things that matter in this circumstance #1 how many bedrooms the tenants voucher is for and #2 what is their maximum allowable rent that section 8 will allow them to pay based on their income.To your first question If you accept an applicant that has a voucher for $1000 that is the maximum amount that your housing authority will allow you to put on the lease, so in essence you will lose out on the extra $200 a month.

Last week I had a new construction and the buyer went through quicken.. these guys were horrid took an extra 8 days to close because of their rules.. if they used a local lender they would have been in the home a week earlier.. and they were camped in a hotel.. and whinning like crazy that we the builder were at fault when it was their lender LOL.Account Closed  I think you taking the contingencies comment a little out of context.
