Ask them a lot of questions about their loan programs and the costs associated.2.

I use quickbooks now for my other businesses.......I don't really like it that much.Does anyone have suggestion about a good accounting program for investors?

You are trying to say you will use the " investors" to fund community programs, that sounds like a charity because there is no earning on the investment.  

.- After closing, you can do some of the work yourself to save money, but the program doesn't allow you to pay yourself.You will want to buy a Class B property, maybe Class C+, in an area that seems to be improving.

Investment product marketers who claim to be GPs, GPs who claim “ownership”, insurance salesman who claim to be “financial advisors”, people who attended an executive training program claiming to have an MBA, what ever happened to honesty?  

The Housing Choice Voucher program here is run by CMHA (Columbus Metropolitan Housing Authority).

@Heather McNicol when you say the program is expensive, can I ask how much the program costs?

Personally I like the Section 8 program when the property is located in a super poor area with a ton of blight and crime.

JamesI work with the loan programs through wholesale lenders so you wouldn't be able to go direct unless they have a retail side.
