I have a handyman who works for another investor and actually prefers S8 (gracious almost to a fault) over doing the $500k homeowners (says the latter are a PITA).and then I've heard the bad stuff. my buddy is a cop in a nice suburb. goes to the same apartment complex all the time. one call he got S8 gal shows up at the door naked. he asked her to put some clothes on...she returns wearing a hat...

If it's a plain clothes type and he/she simply observes, the occupant may blow up with threats, that should do it too.

For me, just taking baby steps.

I'm hoping I won't have any issues when my handyman moves in, because he can have more debris on his clothes...It depends on the area about tenant expectations, but I think it definitely helps reduce vacancy and make the rent more firm..

this is baby george and a new member to the forum and my question isregarding subject to and lease options . you do this deals when thereis no equity in the house and where I can get the contracts to dothis type of deals and how to find buyers for this dealthanksgeorge

I will have to see if my parents don't mind baby sitting for a little bit.

We were able to get that one notarized 7 states away and back in time and literally closed on the final day before the buyers were going to lose financing.All in all the hardest part of the flip was getting this notary piece accomplished but now that we learned our lesson on that we should have no problems for the next deal that we find.PS. when I started the flip I was living in Qatar and have since moved to Kuwait had a baby started a new job and stood up an entire new operation for work in a country that we have never done business for.

The value of the Section 8 voucher counts towards our income requirements, so does the value of food stamps and other non-monetary benefits that aid in covering the cost of food, shelter, clothing, transportation, medical care.About the tenant who was struggling with paying the $25 or just paying it late...

Food, clothing, shelter (unless you 'own' a mortgage), entertainment, etc., expenses are irrelevant in underwriting.
