A few suggestions:Get a Job, Borrow from Parents/relatives, Get a partner for the deal, or (trigger warning: not PC)  renounce US citizenship, cross the border illegally, and get all the government money you need.  

Now - and I'm not going to get too political but simply state facts - we have an open border and LOTS of people have come in.

So, to separate the rare newbie who is willing to do the real work at educating himself on what really is necessary for success from the people who want to take what they perceive is the guru/mentor shortcut (or the “cheap” version in which instead of buying the program you hang around the edges seeking “free” information from those who have paid for those program) I will not answer specifically as to why the program they’re suggesting won’t work or is too risky or borders on illegal.  

I hate dealing with stuff like this.You’re right On the border so could go either way

( He worked as a part-time super for a few other much larger buildings so this was welcome supplemental $$$ for him)If you manage properties in the area (say anywhere in the area loosely bordered by Sunset-Park, up to GreenPoint to Williamsburg & Bushwick, down to Lefferts/Flatbush (see red-circled area in map below) let's create a little 'union' to share a part-time roaming Super !

But Flood insurance is required as primary ($2000 / yr)By the time I fix and sell the home (8-12 months estimated) and incur additional costs + holding vacant, and selling expense (SQUATTER RISK, <100 miles to MEX border), and then go back and recapture depreciation + Capital Gains... my TAKE HOME will be far less than the appraised market value. ~50% haircut.So... since all goes to charity in 15 - 20 yrs anyway... why not donate now and play those cards?

Both sides of the border are investing in our downtown area which is great!
