In some areas in my market Section 8 will pay $200.00 more than you might be able to get "open market" one of the benefits aside from HAKC picking up a portion or all of the rent is that Section 8 will adjust the subsidized amount should circumstances change in the tenants life ex: loss of job , injury etc , I have not had a lot of issues with section 8 tenants in general , yes there is a yearly inspection but it’s not as bad as a lot of people make it out to be generally if the house is in fair condition , no peeling paint and is safe you shouldn’t have any issues, the biggest issue I have had with Section 8 is actually getting the process started ex : turning in paper work , processing the voucher, paperwork getting misplaced at the main office , so I say with a word of caution turn in everything at once , make copies , and keep your fingers crossed , once the checks start coming don’t give them any reason to touch the file unless absolutely necessary , I might be being a little over dramatic but I have quite a few stories , but once the payments start coming it’s smooth sailing from there !

I was wondering where Realtors stood on the Wise Agent vs. Top Producer debate, Do you use either?
Which do you prefer?
KW unveiled it's E-Edge and I am not a fan of it at all!

I use QuickBooks it's pretty complex at least it was to me when I first started using it but it has everything I need the only thing I don't like is it is desktop based and I have to have my laptop near whenever I need to check anything , but there is no reoccurring fee.
Goodluck

Just curious to how many Realtors on Biggerpockets have Designations? ( GRI ABR CRS )I have decided to pursue getting the GRI , just wondered if any Realtors saw an increase in business after obtaining designations ?
