@J Beard - the leases I've inherited are stock Section 8 leases, I've connected with a local lawyer as I want much more clarity around expectations in my leases. 

Clarity in what each party is expecting is very important.  

So far I've found door knocking on 30-60-90 pre foreclosures and bandit sign leads to be the highest producing. ...and for clarity, I understand my primary action should always be speaking with motivated sellers who have equity. ...

Well Monika that's exactly how I was trying to post it but obviously you get an A+ for elegance and clarity lol. 

Just wanting clarity on how the income is reported if at all.

@Kirk Olson I understand from your answer and everyone else's with clarity now.

Maybe you'll find it's for you, maybe not... but at least you'll have some clarity. 

Hi, I'm new to the site and would like some clarity on using an FHA loan for a multifamily house hack in my local area.

Having clarity of purpose will help in your next steps (like what type of property to buy, etc).I detected hints of both here--listening to BP is very investor centered but extending out the living arrangements with your college friends is alluring but not a real business plan.

Rinse and repeat :)Hope this provides at least a little clarity.
