After Hurricane Sandy in NY the vast majority of the houses on the South Shore of Long Island were lifted through various government grant programs.

One thing I'd comment on about the DOGE cuts, there's a big difference in making cuts to the "management" of the program versus the actual subsidies received by the tenants.

Are these programs upwards of $25,000 worry it to FastTrack you on learning the business, get coaching and into a deal while providing access to a network worth it?

Hey @Matthew Giblin - I'd have to echo @Shamar Gregg, Chicago offers a great section 8 program through the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA). 

The terms you are looking to offer definitely appear reasonable and you should be able to get these offered out under a white label or table funding (maybe not all those terms at once, but likely covered through different options/programs, even with one lender)

FHA also allows some flexibility with grants and assistance programs, which could help with closing costs or down payment.

near 0% and 0% options with DPA's exist (down payment assistance) programs.

However, based on their website, they do offer competitive programs for fix-and-flip investors.

The rumblings of the NYC to Scranton Amtrak line seem more realistic than ever before with big funding from various state and federal programs. 

If you do not own a home yet and you do not have a ton of cash you can always use a DPA - Down Payment Program.
