Quote from @Alexsis Venable: Hey everyone,I’m considering selling my primary home in South Jersey (worth ~$360K, owe ~$248K) and using roughly $85–90K in equity to start investing in Section 8 rentals.My goal is to create long-term cash flow and gradually scale to multiple properties using a BRRR-style strategy.I’m currently looking at Cleveland, Huntsville, Birmingham, and Memphis for affordability and rent potential.A few questions for experienced investors:Which of these markets are still strong for Section 8 in 2025?

The exponential increase in equity and digital asset prices is exacerbating inequality.
