Protect your wealth with stable cashflowing assets and all the tax benefits that come with it.
Over 9 million Americans, or 2.71% of the population, benefit from Section 8 and other forms of housing assistance through HUD. 2.01 million Americans live in Section 8 Project Housing. While tenants with housing vouchers pay up to 40% of their income for rent; the local public housing authority (PHA) pays the difference to the landlord via direct deposit. These are often the elderly, disabled, veterans, or single mothers with children. 24% of individuals benefiting rom HUD are disabled in some way. 30% of households with children are female-headed, and the average HUD household uses housing assistance for 10.1 years. This allows a seasoned real estate investor the opportunity to leverage guaranteed rents from HUD while taking advantage of real estate tax benefits.
Here’s how the SEC defines an accredited or sophisticated investor:
“An accredited investor, in the context of a natural person, includes anyone who:
earned income that exceeded $200,000 (or $300,000 together with a spouse) in each of the prior two years, and reasonably expects the same for the current year, OR
has a net worth over $1 million, either alone or together with a spouse (excluding the value of the person’s primary residence).
There are other categories of accredited investors, including the following, which may be relevant to you:
any trust, with total assets in excess of $5 million, not formed specifically to purchase the subject securities, whose purchase is directed by a sophisticated person, or
any entity in which all of the equity owners are accredited investors.
In this context, a sophisticated person means the person must have, or the company or private fund offering the securities reasonably believes that this person has, sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to evaluate the merits and risks of the prospective investment.”

Section 8 homes are guaranteed rents paid by the Housing Authority for economically disadvantaged American citizens, which roughly accounts for 2.7% of the population of the United States. Candidates are typically on a minimum 2 year waiting list with some as far back as 8 years varying by the respective county. With a competitive voucher premium paid by HUD, rents tend to increase 3% – 5% every year by HUD. Annual inspections are required but not difficult as they are reasonable. Our team is very familiar with the section 8 process to work with HUD to expedite housing for qualified individuals.
Within this segment, we focus on homes built in 1950 and newer, under $100,000 with 2+ bedrooms or more. Section 8 does not go by square footage, but by bedroom count, so we typically stay below 1500 square feet to remain affordable and scalable. We focus on landlord friendly states, predominately in the Southeast and some parts of the Midwest.
In most investment opportunities you will be a limited liability owner of the property which comes with all the ownership benefits like depreciation and cash flow. The properties are owned by a “Company Name” entity for which that property is the only asset which reduces liability. You in turn will be a direct shareholder in this business entity so in essence you are part owner of the company that owns the property. This allows for a direct flow-through of cash flow, depreciation, and upon sale of the asset allows you to realize long term capital gains. You “own” an portfolio of homes.
This is a perfect investment vehicle for physicians and other high net worth individuals who have a hefty tax bill each year, that could be greatly reduced by depreciation.
This is an exciting point. Over a 18-24 month period it is our goal to have our properties not be more than 50-60% leveraged. While we start out with 75%-80% leverage based on purchase price, we decrease that ratio rapidly by actively paying down the loan and by forcing appreciation of the property through value add improvements, superior management, and rent increases, leading to a 5-year loan to value ratio of no more than 60%. This conservative approach provides additional buffer from the ups and downs of the real estate market.
Yes. Investing in real estate in a structure like ours is perfect for retirement plan investing because your involvement is by definition passive. All you need to do, if you haven’t already, is set up a SELF-DIRECTED IRA with an independent custodian, like Directed IRA, Specialized IRA Services, or Vantage IRA. Once that is done you can invest using your IRA/401K/ROTH-IRA… or several other self-directed retirement account forms.
All our investment and Private Placement Memorandums are based on individual properties, and every property is different and will therefore offer different returns.
Our returns typically consist of two parts:
Preferred Return from Cash Flow: Each investment is selected such that it pays an minimum average annual preferred return of at least 15% (depending on the individual deal this could be higher than that) which is paid out monthly via direct deposit into your bank account or by check. In other words, the investors get paid on a 60/40 split to recoup their initial investment, typically between 9 to 19 months. This protects you as an investor and makes sure we only pick projects that have strong cash flow outlooks.
Profit Share/Back End Profit: Upon a Sale or Refinancing of the property it is our goal to return 100% of the initial invested amount to each investor, and then do a profit split between sponsors and investors, usually within a 3-5 year hold. Each fund varies by goal.
You should expect to receive a cash distribution on a monthly basis for Section 8 housing, as tenants sign a lease and move into the property, and then also upon an exit event for a refinance at the 18 – 24 month mark typically.
