I love the program, as it helps many people who can't afford housing.

I did a search on the forums and insurance seems like it could be a major problem.I have houses in two different LLC’s in Texas and insurance is not an issue at all.

@Kayla Elliott  Hi Kayla - this was a commercial mortgage loan with a local bank, that held it "in house" after it was issued. 

For starters, I recommend to begin with a single family home or if you are looking to start locally, do house hacking. 

It’s like a scene out of a zombie movie as these people stagger down the middle of the street to the liquor store on the corner past my house.

If I were you I would look into the possibility of starting off with a house hack.

I am not preticuarly brand new to real estate as I've done 1 house flip before and 1 brrrr here locally to me.To begin, I’m aiming to tackle two single-family BRRRR projects in the Jackson County, MO area.
