My take away is that it is a real possibility our HAP payments may not be deposited, but we won't know until very end of month because they are not going to announce it until last moment.My question is if HAP payments not paid for Feb and let's say government reopens and payments resume in March, will we get missed Feb payments or just have to eat the loss?

you have to eat and pay staff.. 

It seems like you are doing work in several places simultaneously, which will eat up your capital quickly.

Look for management and HOA fees to eat up any profit if you need those.

Your properties are eating up more of their time than properties that produce 50% - 100% more income so it's a losing proposition for them.

You'll never get the construction loan if you haven't successfully done this before and the red tape, permits, and pitfalls will eat you alive.

The best work in the world won’t make you a dime if your holding costs eat away at your profits.

It took some time, but made me more aware/conscious of tax regs and how best to stay organzized.  

GP seems to eat during the hold period and then everyone cash's out at the end.

She couldn’t eat without working, couldn’t pay bills, etc.
