The program was created to give low-income tenants an alternative to living in federal project housing.S8 sets their rental rates to the LOW-END of market averages, if not slightly below.

Can you lease an apt under USDA low income and have someone else live there???

Far too many get stuck in the "paralysis by analysis" stage, thinking they just don't know enough to get started.

Having a group of friends living in an apartment complex creates a sense of community and reduces turnover.

I recently had an issue with a refi and all I did was pop into their live to ask my questions.

Live in one unit and rent out the other three.

If the property breaks even, or operates in the red currently, it will only operate deeper in the negative (unless you find a strong ROI like creating more bedrooms, convert a non living space to living space, etc) with another loan. 

They have lived in that house now for 24+ years and just signed a new 3 year renewal. 

Sad times we live in just as we enter bear market today & prepare for crash of our lifetime!

I live in Silver Spring area.
