 Greg, I really appreciated you pointing me to this thread it was a great resource. Thank you for that. I've spent a great deal of time speaking with many investors in different markets ranging from state to state (but not in my own in TX) about voucher tenants. The common denominator I have heard was a lack of proper DD. I wasn't hoping for my responses to be read as an indicator of making a decision to invest section 8 or not, or stating that I have a more thorough DD process than someone with more experience. 

 I would agree with you. My situation is such that I already own the property. I'm not looking for another property at this time. I'm hoping to see if landlords who have been able to screen voucher tenants have had a positive experience. Almost all the horror stories I've heard about are when the landlord assumed they were screened if they have a voucher or whatever their reason was for not doing DD on the tenant.

I have a property that I renovated and would like to turn into a rental instead of a flip. Most of the horror section 8 land Lord stories I've heard of are where the Tennant wasn't vetted and simply took them in for the voucher. Some states/county rules are more favorable than others for the landlord.

Any positive experiences here from landlords that were able to properly screened the tenants first?

I have a flip property in Duncanville I am heavily considering keeping and exploring the voucher programs. It's a 4bd home and the FMR puts this around $3,000. I've spent a good deal of an hour clicking around in circles on the DHA webpage and setting up a profile with their bob.ai platform but cannot seem to get real answers or the ability to speak to someone about the details.

Anyone have experience with voucher program as a land lord?

Has anyone used with success any local bathroom resurface companies?

Please share your experience with working/ hiring any of the contractors through home advisor on the build your team section. 

I'm looking for flip properties to buy in the Fort Worth and Mid-Cities area. Cosmetic to light/medium renovations needed sfhs.

Please reach out if you are new into the business (not working for one of the big box names) or even if you are working for a smaller operation.

Has anyone tried and succeeded at raising funds to create a campsite/park with multiple buildings for rent? Something that would attract family reunions, parties, etc.

Buying a lot surrounded by trees or having lake access. Anyone done this?

That is really interesting.. I need to talk with you.
