The issue I have is that the section 8 office takes a few weeks after leases are signed to issue the contract and declare the tenant's vs th PHA share. 

Personally, I dont get the "BEWARE of KATRINA" sentiment that's out there.Hurricanes happen.

Did you use your LLC or apply for a permit using your personal information? 

No personal property may be stored in the common areas at any time. 

Put together a team with a real estate person, someone to look after your property, loan officers, builders, and bookkeepers.

This means that you will probably need to pay registration and filing fees in at least 2 states if you don’t buy CA property as a CA resident.Any lawsuits should be limited to the assets of the LLC and not your personal assets (assuming you run the LLC appropriately and the corporate veil is not pierced, some debate as to SMLLC).

We personally pull our specific criteria lists for residential tear downs for development from Remine and Realist (We have access to both as licensed realtors in NJ for free).

Some states require landlords to accept Section 8, while others do not.There's also a process with the landlord passing an inspection, signing the contract, etc.I recommend you contact your housing office and ask them what the process involves and how long it will take. 

Specifically, how to go about managing unrelated persons living together per county or city ordinance and lease structure. 

I had a person quote me $1800 for a drywall patch.
