Have successfully removed/eliminated all rats via bait stations then removed all cabinetry, baseboards, and drywall to 40 inches to expose studs and baseplates for spraying, and remove corpses (30+).  

Section 8/HCV programs can provide stable, long-term tenants and government-backed rent, but as you’ve experienced, policy and administrative changes can create unpredictability.It’s a reminder that while government-backed programs reduce tenant risk, they don’t eliminate operational or policy risk.

Guidelines to follow:Only buy in low-cost markets if your costs stay under 75% even after paying for two major capital improvements, such as a new roof and a new water service line.Make sure you can eliminate all obvious safety and health hazards—like broken sidewalks, missing railings, lead paint, or poor lighting.

I’ve eliminated all MORTGAGE REITs (mREITs) from my consideration because they’re much too speculative - they borrow 4 - 9 times their capital base.  

That’s one of the big differences compared to a conventional loan, where 20% down eliminates PMI.When MIP falls off:For FHA loans made after June 3, 2013, the MIP rules depend on how much you put down:Less than 10% down: MIP stays for the life of the loan.10% or more down: MIP lasts 11 years, then it drops off automatically.How to remove it sooner:Yep, to get rid of MIP earlier, you’d have to refinance into a conventional loan once you’ve built up at least 20% equity and meet the other lending criteria.A lot of first-time buyers go FHA just to get in the game, then refinance into conventional once their value or equity grows enough to make it worth it.Hope this helps...

By eliminating the separate, "service fee" line item at guest checkout, the "all-in" pricing model aligns better with modern travelers and hotels.I personally believe this helps everyone in our industry attract more guest demand.Guests see the final price up front, reducing the "sticker shock" that often leads to cart abandonment.

Usually budget related.....even as a GC you can still easily go over budget.

That listing broker could’ve easily made an extra 2% on the deal but because they did not return a phone call they missed out.

Experienced investors like to control as much of the deal as possible to eliminate unexpected problems.That said, here are some issues I've hears other investor have had: - Special assessments - Ask for the HOA financials to see whether or not they are funded appropriately - Lawsuits - search for lawsuits against the HOA.

In contrast, if the property is passed to heirs, the heirs generally receive a step-up in basis to the property’s fair market value at the date of death, effectively eliminating prior depreciation and minimizing potential recapture.
