Season 3
Episode 26
Published 9 months, 1 week ago
Description
This week, Mark is joined by real estate advisor and investor Jimmy Barton, who shares how his real estate journey has expanded into Section 8 housing. With St. Louis offering one of the most accessible markets for new investors, Jimmy breaks down why this region—and Section 8 in particular—presents a compelling opportunity right now.
He explains how guaranteed rent payments, housing authority incentives, and high demand for 3–4 bedroom homes create a strong cash flow environment, even as traditional rentals become less profitable. Jimmy also offers real talk for out-of-state investors, including why choosing the right property manager and tenant screening process can make or break your investment.
Whether you’re new to real estate or looking to diversify your portfolio, this episode is a deep dive into the strategy behind smart, sustainable returns.
