Hi Everyone,I am making a commitment to be more active on here, and going to try to post here a few times a month and also answer questions from my perspective for the younger investors.As the title suggests, I am a long time RE investor, have 3 properties 2 of which I rent out (one is cash flowing $700/mo , YES) I control 1M in assets, have about 250k in equity total.

BP, I've been on a long search for technology and applications that allow me to automate parts of the tenant journey (leads, apt tours, screening, rent collection...).

Some states require landlords to accept Section 8, while others do not.There's also a process with the landlord passing an inspection, signing the contract, etc.I recommend you contact your housing office and ask them what the process involves and how long it will take.
