Use the standardized approach to formulate your estimates keeping within those stats of similar properties, you need to do that because the reader of your plan will be using that same information and if you are too far out, without good justification, it becomes a reflection on you as a business person, are you doing or capable of doing your due diligence or are you trying to fog your way through and reap some benefit.

Here is what the following charts show as our current situation.50% of households now received at least one federal check monthly.Nearly half pays zero income tax (yes, I'm aware they pay other taxes but so does the other half already).50 years ago the annual federal transfers was equal to 24 billion in today's dollars – in 2010 that number had risen to $2.2 trillion in transfer of money, goods, and services, which was nearly a 100 fold increase AFTER adjusting for inflation!

Yes I have seen section 8 be in a constant flux of change.If the tenants income increases then section 8 adjusts the voucher amount.Also here you can list in the lease that the tenant pays a certain amount of utilities and that is fine.Some section 8 areas they will pay 800 for a 2 bed but then all of a sudden readjust to start only paying 700 which is not market value.These section 8 tenants never make up the difference from what I have seen.So you accept the lower rent or evict them and get a regular tenant for 1,200 more a year in cash flow.I don't know with the election and many government programs in flux how stable section 8 is currently.Might be a bad decision to base many of your renters off of that income stream.
