Real estate investor Mike Curadossi has discovered a lucrative niche in affordable housing by mastering the Section 8 rental market. With a portfolio valued over $18 million and 56 units generating $58,000 monthly in cash flow, Curadossi has transformed the perception of low-income housing investments.
Specializing in small multifamily properties in Massachusetts, Mike has developed a meticulous tenant screening process that ensures stable, long-term rentals. His approach goes beyond traditional screening, including property inspections and thorough background checks that verify every detail of a potential tenant's application.
The key to his success lies in building strong relationships with housing authorities and understanding the nuances of Section 8 programs. By targeting properties where he can increase rents significantly and working closely with housing agencies, Curadossi has created a reliable investment model that provides stable housing for low-income families while generating consistent returns.
Most notably, Curadossi emphasizes the human element of his investments. "I'm not just providing housing," he explains, "I'm creating stability for families and helping children maintain consistent living environments."
