Every time I see a disgruntle landlord talk about a section 8 tenant first thing comes to mind they did not screen them properly. I have experience good section 8 and bad ones... as well as good non section 8 and bad ones....it falls back on that person not on their economic status.

This is a very tricky right here as this property is a few blocks north of delmar which the area is iffy; especially depending on the block the property is on. Now there is alot of development happening on the north side of delmar which is a good thing. This will require you to do alot of driving around the area and see if there are any big developments close by.

I own a 4 unit that I lived in in 63111 on South Grand by Delor. As the other investors say its hit or miss in this area. Some blocks are nice and quiet and others have the drug users and prostitutes. Now most of the 63111 area is one of the Opportunity Zone so the hopes is eventually more investors come buy the area up to change it around...but there are some deals you just have to get it on the right block

I agree with the other investors wrote and another thing you can do since they complain they always have issues is to do monthly maintenance walk throughs this will help in minimizing them doing damage to the unit until their lease is up or you can offer them a cash for keys situation now and tell them you need them to move to solve all the problems they so call been having with the unit....basically using their BS to get them to leave
