I had zero desire to build a bunch of rentals this way..

:)If this is for a rental or sale, then moderately finish the garage, economically, so someone can use it as additional detached living area/office, etc. 

Do you get the value of it back if you sell or does it increase the potential rental income?

(Now, if you can do an STR or MTR, you can juice your rental numbers, but you're also doing a little more work.)To me, appreciation is the real money-maker in real estate.

Converted from primary home to rental.

I am in the Tampa Bay Florida area and look forward to meeting, working and learning from those who are willing to share your knowledge.Hi Allison, I moved to Columbus a few years ago (from Portland, Oregon which was super expensive) to become a full time real estate investor, and ever since, I've completed quite a lot of BRRRRs, flips, and own a successful rental portfolio here in Columbus Ohio. 

Hello everybody, I am looking to purchase a property with a section 8 tenant, and the rent is way below market at about $800 for a 3 bed house, while an average rental is about $1300 to $1400.

It always amazes me on different vacation rental forums when hosts are always quick to assume the worst of guests and their intentions.  

I recently bought a rental in Ohio.

You can use the income from the rental units to qualify and minimum down payment is 3.5%.
