If you want to leave your properties as slums, your expense ratios will be much higher due to so many revolving tenants.However, taking money off the top for cash-out deals is a good thing and works, if you maintain a discipline.

It was fantastic!

I sure would have hated to buy a new fridge and then on top of that, pay an electrician $100 to go and push that little button, because the new fridge wouldn;t have worked, either.

I could spend it as such:$3000 x 2 granite benches$1000x 4 bathrooms - replace vanity, vanity top, faucet, change flooring to plank vinyl.

[[[[[.........When you see landlords that will not accept sec 8, most times its because it won't pass and they don't want to fix it up. ....]]]]]Please site your source for that statistic.I don't take Section 8 because I don't do leases, and Section 8 doesn't accept month to month agreements.Not to mention, I have yet to meet any Section 8 tenant who can meet my written rental criteria.The landlords I know who don't take Section 8 have nice places and they don't take Section 8 because the welfare tenants will trash a place and they are difficult and demanding to deal with.My places are in tip top condition and I respond to any repair call in less than 24 hours.Although, I have to confess, one of my houses can't pass Section 8 inspection because there is a centuries old tree too close to the house, and I refuse to cut it down.Another house wouldn't pass because the railings on the giant deck aren't close enough together and Section 8 doesn't want their little rug rats to fall almost 2 feet to the ground and maybe get hurt.

Sold off many of them and went down to the bare essentials but building the collection back up with top of the line pieces.I do have to say that for all this time, I never shot sporting clays until fall 2 years ago.

Just an FYI I created a Houston 'group' here on BP, go up to Groups at the top, and search for Houston you will find it.
