YES! Was actually reading a little about that the other day – def. something to consider. It’s nice that it’s always backed like that :) Right now we have an “open” door to all kinds of tenants out there (though not sure if something needs to be different/changed to allow for Section 8?) but if we continue going down this path I’ll be bringing it up for sure.

Thx friend! Hope all your voice work is still bringing home some nice money ;)

I don’t know if anyone has mentioned it but have you tried Section 8. It is not necessarily what people think. My sister has a 4-bedroom house that she has been renting out 10 years with great success because she found the right renters. Everybody on Section 8 is NOT trifling. In my sister’s case, it covers her mortgage and then some. The good thing is Section 8 will always pay even if the renter doesn’t. So you are guaranteed something while you have a renter.

In reply to Bridget. Oh yeah! I actually remember apartment complexes doing that kinda stuff - it was awesome when looking for a new place! I'll keep that in our back pockets, thanks :)

Sorry about the rental troubles. That’s one of the reasons I talked myself out of trying to be a landlord. Seems like a lot of stress that I don’t need. Hopefully your online income picks back up soon too!

In reply to Amanda. Thanks :) It's def. a weird thing to be writing about as I'm not used to super bad times! Makes my stomach all ache and stuff, uck. Though being at the beach right now clearing my mind sure helps :) Thanks for stopping by!

In reply to Jdub. Oh, nice! Didn't even know you *could* advertise on Zillow, that's pretty smooth. I'll look into it, thanks :) And congrats on your success so far!
