I've been working the program for 15+ years and currently manage 120ish SEC 8 leases. 

I got close to using the 5% down program about a month ago on a Bucktown 3 flat. 

This is why lenders and RE agents should onnly advise on what they specialize in - many agents don't fully understand the financing programs that are available.

Hello everyone. I'm curious to ask what strategy you guys use for agent/realtor outreach. I know some do SMS and email blasts but what have you found successful to get realtors' attention to send you deals?

If you do not own a primary I would suggest buying a primary and getting a 2-4 unit to start off with a multi door cash flow.If you buy a primary you do not need a PML you can get 100% financing under a few programs or a DPA.

Before investing out of state, I wish I had decided to buy here in LA with an incentive program.  

cap ex/maintenance is not a function of rent and I dislike that BP represents it as such.  

And, yes, I get "targets" IDed by computer programs I wrote. 

Our apartments are a bit funky layout-wise which doesn't help to fill them quickly when they turn.In general if you have a functional apartment in Bloomfield with parking, you should have no problem renting it. 

I know CT, NH, and NY have similar programs I’m just not sure of the specifics.
