General Discussion

Investing groups are holding seminars on how to purchase beat down homes in depressed towns, fix them up, and then rent them to Section 8 tenants. They also help find the houses, and link folks up to funding. They boast of phenomenal profits thanks to generous funding from the government for Section 8 landlords.

Not sure if it's a good thing or not. It does provide decent, affordable housing to the most needy, and fills a need for S8 landlords. The boasting about profits makes me very uncomfortable.
