In general, you'll want to verify that that the Section 8 applicant has a voucher and that it's appropriate for the number of bedrooms that your unit has. 

I'm looking for someone who has Section 8 properties for rent -- studio, 1, and 2 bedrooms.

Thank you for your creative help!

The investment was a campus house with 5 bedrooms in a great location for students.

And to address others in the thread, I'm well aware that legally the lease goes with the purchase, but what I failed to communicate clearly is what are some creative ways to deal with it.

BP, I need your help. Long story short there is an abandoned home that I have found that I would like to purchase to fix and flip. This is what I have done so far:- Went to the county and found the owners- Found that ...

Everything we have been doing so far has been very “conventional “ from our home searches to our finances and we are slowly learning that much more creativity is needed to get us to where we want to be as investors.

My goal going forward is to scale up, buying as many properties as possible by any means possible (conventional or creative financing). 

absolutely but I bought mine a few years ago triplex 700 ft.² each unit one bedroom one bath Probably the best financial decision I’ve made 

We never hired a management company, as it was not cost effective with rent we have been charging and it is only one house.Another question: If I do wait til Fall 2019 to sell, should I rip the carpet (up the stairs, living room hallways, bonus and bedrooms—2600sf house) and leave floors bare, (it’s light colored, horrible carpet) to allow buyers to add their own?
