But I am very worried that I maybe missing something important.What is the community thoughts Deal or No Deal?

Leverage Local ResourcesEconomic Development Grants: Check with your city or county for grants or incentives aimed at affordable housing or community improvement projects.Local Banks or Credit Unions: They may be more flexible than larger financial institutions, especially if your project aligns with community needs.Partnership with Nonprofits: Collaborate with organizations interested in affordable housing or sustainable living.4.

That way you know they are active in the BP community!

Thank you all for the replies, love this community!

Hi, I just started using BiggerPockets and am excited to learn about the community and all the resources available.

Then your best bet are probably community banks which have more flexibility (albeit worse terms) than larger banks and also worth looking into are DSCR lenders.

The REI community here is very active.

I’m even considering buying thick rugs to give the tenants above but even that sucks to have to tell tenants what they need in their home.I really love the community on this site.

A smaller building that used to be a small community bank that could easily be retail space/ cafe.I will qualify for conventional financing for this property, but with interest rates being what they are, I'm not sure that's the best option.
