On top of that are the low homeownership costs.

Hi, I have an applicant who is 20 years old with a low credit score.

Of course, this is just my opinion but I bet I'm not alone..If I'm an investor, I think the returns you're able to achieve in Costa Rica are higher than normal because you focus on these large properties and, as @Martin D. mentioned, prices in that country are too high and returns too low.

A-Class neighborhoods are high-end, desirable, with low vacancy rates.

**Understand Section 8** - **Housing Choice Voucher Program**: Section 8, or the Housing Choice Voucher Program, helps low-income families afford housing by subsidizing rent.

Typically Section 8 assistance will track along the market rent for low income communities in the area (slightly higher or lower depending on the location). 

I can't tell you how many times I went with the LOW GUY and it cost me more, or how many times I tried to do the CHEAP FIX, and it didn't work. 

A condo HOA can decide they want to replace all the roofs, but if the bank account is low, hit you with a $5,000 special assessment.

But taking the long view, those low fixed rate 30 year mortgages are some of the best hedges against inflation you can have.

Correcting this should adjust the profit at sale.Additionally, your property taxes seem quite low.
