Maybe a mom & pop owned small multi-family can owner finance or sell to you with some guidance for the transition.

@Jonathan Mueller I live in Detroit, but have family in Menominee.  

There are more factors than just the community (#beds, level of theming, location to the amenities, style of home (single family, townhome, condo) and others) But I would strongly advise to stay within some of the same communities you mentioned like Storey Lake, Windsor Hills, Championsgate and a few others if cash flow is your goal.

You can still find single-family homes in the $80k–$100k range and duplexes in the $130k–$150k range, even in C and C+ neighborhoods that are seeing steady improvements.

Ensure you are buying in an area you want and can see your family living in.

Based on how I am reading your summary it sounds like there is solid equity in the 2-family in order for a bank to cross-collaterize assets. 

The program is designed to assist low-income families, and these benchmarks might exclude a lot of qualified people.That said, the requirement for stable rental and work history is reasonable, but you might consider relaxing the credit score or income requirements since Section 8 guarantees a portion of the rent.

Quote from @Kathy Grossart: Can a non-accredited investor in an already established SDIRA, within a 506(b) multi-family syndication, do a 1031 exchange to another syndicated property (with same operators), if the new 506(c) offering required investors to be accredited, and the investor is not? 

I own several single-family rentals (SFRs) with Section 8 tenants, which have built significant equity over the years.

Live in the multi-family for a year, then move back into your own home and rent out the unit.If if not ideal, it's worth the hassle.
