From the Publisher
The greatest landlording book has arrived! Finally, two guys stepped up to the plate and wrote a book that is not only truthful, it also was written to strictly protect the landlord and save hime cash! Tips that no one has ever thougt about doing before, Mike and Nick have perfected a ton of them. They learned by trial and error and asked a ton of great questions along their way. You get the answers to their questions and their creative "out of the box" concepts written into one wonderful book!
What will the Section 8 Bible do for you? Without a doubt it will save you more money then you paid for the book! How? Just like in any other business, you are going to make mistakes in landlording. When you purchase the Section 8 Bible, Mike and Nick have already taken the bullets for you! They will tell you every stupid, money, time, and financing mistake they have ever made. This way, you will not make the same mistake as they did. It's not that they were two idiots, it's that they didn't have any experience! That is what this book is all about, an experience in the world of Section 8 Housing. Yes my friends, you can now buy experience! How else will it save me money? Mike and Nick invented a strategy and it's called elimination! What's that you ask? They came up with a plan to eliminate a problem before it becomes a problem. Costly items that were not needed to pass Section 8 inspections such as garbage disposals and dishwashers were removed from the property before they would break and cause the inspection to fail. Mike and Nicke have an entire chapter dedicated to such items!
What's this book about? It's a true hardcore story of Mike and Nick's accomplishments, failures, and experiences with being a Section 8 Landlord over the past 13 years. Nothing is held back! You get the good, the bad, and the ugly, told in a raw yet understandable way. Their no ghost writers saying, "say it like this", or no lawyers saying, "you can't say that". Everything you will be reading is Mike and Nick's experiences told in their own words. Some writings may motivate you, some may deter you, some you will learn from and some you will laugh at. All you will fing interesting, that we guarantee!
What this book is not about! This book is like no other because it is NOT a manual filled with junk to buy in order to make you a great Section 8 Landlord. We are not trying to sell you leases, CD's, products, seminars or "systems". We are strictly giving you information on how to purchase real estate and then how to make and save money while renting your property in the Section 8 program!
Most books or guides on Section 8 will only tell you the upside of the program. Why? They want you to purchase the book, that's why! They don't want to scare you away or tell you any of the bad things that can happen when renting your property in the program, but we will! Not only will we tell you about them, we will tell you about what you can do to prevent bad things from happening!
Either write things worthy of reading or do things worthy of writing. Mike and Nick have done both! Section 8 Landlording, they lived it, they learned it, and they conquered it. Now they wrote a fabulous book on it. After reading this book, you'll be able to do the same!

Great Information A Must Have For Investors!
I have recently bought two investment properties in low income neighborhoods. I struggled at first to find good tenents who would pay on time and take care of the houses. After a while i realized those two goals where a bit much too ask. I was getting discouraged and was about to give up on the idea. But then i got the section 8 bible. Both properties are now signed up for section 8 and i dont have to worry about anything but passing inspection once a year and watch the money get directly deposited in my checkings acount from the federal government. I couldn't have done it without the section 8 bible. I fully recomend it to any new investor. I now plan on only investing in low income areas exclusively and signing them all up on section 8.
Every Landlord's Treasure Book!
Within 5 minutes of flipping through this book, I was able pick up more than 5 practical tips to apply on my rental properties to save big time hassle and money. As I read further, every single page is full of precise tips. The author is also very humorous, there are always something make me laugh in each page. This book is every landlord's MUST! Even I don't own any section 8 properties, I still find many tips useful. They help me to exam each room with detailed checklists. For some modifications of the houses, they give clear step-by-step instructions. This is the most impressive landlord book I have ever read!
Cash is King
A lot of people buy real estate for the appreciation....not me. First and foremost I look for a property to cash flow well each and every month. Low income properties in my area can be bought at a significant of enough discount that they allow for good positive cash flow. Next comes managing them. I like Section 8 tenants because they better ensure me of a long term payment stream subsidized by the local government...not the whims of some flaky tenant. This book has greatly aided me to prepare for what to encounter with this type of tenant. Cash can get wiped out pretty quickly if you're not one step ahead. I'm looking forward to their follow up....Volume 2. The return I get from this type of advice is priceless.
