Well, the latest "clarification" of the vague memo is that "rental assistance programs" are exempt from the pause - so I am expecting payments to arrive as usual.

We currently accept rent from tenants using a variety of 3rd party apps-Cashapp, Venmo, Zelle but are moving away from accepting payments in our individual names and want to start accepting payments directly to the LLC/business accounts, but LLC accounts do not accept Zelle and there is a fee for using business accounts on Venmo.

Can a down payment assistance program be used with the 203k?

I've selected Collin, Denton, and Grayson counties as my investment focus.Welcome. 

After talking to another family member they said they would be willing to go in on the duplex and offered to pay the $40,000 down payment and help with any repairs but they want to be "partners" or "own" a percentage of the duplex.

Yes you can use commission as sourced funds for down payment on a conventional loan.However some lenders have internal overlays that don't allow it.

The payments are super easy!

The payment is about $1320 per month.

@Amanda Lindsay curious about which softwares you evaluated to select Rent Redi?

Could VRBO users from Michigan provide some clarity about the topic of sales tax/lodging tax collection and payment to the state.
