I live right in Glastonbury and I serve the greater Hartford area.

The FHA rules/regs (in particular the FHA self-sufficiency test) are applied the same across all markets, and I know for a fact that in rural communities across the country, and big cities that are not particularly desirable places to live, it's not a deal-breaker, I am not commenting on those areas. 

,I have sold and been managing properties that are near the MIA and haven't had any complaints from residents who are living in them.
