Government first time home buyer's list

[Laura Scherr]

I am working on a buyer's list and I was just talking with someone who mentioned a friend that buys homes that need some rehabbing. He just does some basic things and then sells partially rehabbed property to people who qualify for a government type of program that allows them to purchase these type of homes.  He says there is a list and that the list of buyers, that qualify for this particular program, is long because there aren't enough homes like this for sell. BUT, he couldn't recall the name of the program and I was wondering if anyone might know about this.
