Regarding the other side living for free for life, that is a huge gamble.

When I tried to raise rent for the apartment (where the lady later O.D.'

Anything you do without all of this would be called gambling

Also had a young lady that rented for about 2 1/2 years under the program, got herself together and eventually purchased her very own home. so there are good tenants if you take the time to screen them.bad ones that i thought were going to be ok ended up with a boyfriend hanging around and police being called for disturbances all the time, or the lady that was taking care of her granddaughter but would allow her sons to stay there a few nights sometimes, well he tried to make a drug buy something went wrong and someone shot at him hitting my place, Now she had never been a problem and kept the place well but i later found out the son & a sister was living there for two month while the tenant was staying out of town with a friend.Section 8 get's a bad rep but not all voucher holders are bad tenants.Sometimes landlords just want the money and don't care who they put in their units as long as that voucher amount covers the rent.

That was not something I wanted to gamble with. 

They are a super cool group of ladies. 

The 5/1 for long term is a gamble at best although for the next 8 years or so, it's much more profitable than the 30. 

@Skylar Simpson  again just relaying what the state lady said to me.. just call the CCB  they will fill you in on the developers license I got fined TWICE this year on this situation one was 5k the other was 1k. 

Why is DMM so acceptable to gamble with money, but no one is relying on lotto to provide for their families?

You are gambling with DMM.
