It's not a program for investors. 

@Josh McCulloughThanks for the insights.I'm also looking into the 21st Century CASH Program as a way to bring on homes

You can in Theory with "My community" conventional programs from fannie mae with as low as 5% down however, the issue is no mortgage insurance company I've been able to find has been willing to insure the loan.

What program did you use and did you like it?

Does anyone know of any investor or program that will offer one on one mentoring without a upfront charge?

All tenants that have occupied my duplex have been  on Section 8 - so I can provide some insight to those who are interested in the Housing Department's Section 8 program.

Some of these events they might try to sell you into a mentoring program or try to sell you something else.

I will say however, that programs with low downpayments can mean a big dollar return (prob equal to 10 midwest properties) if you find the right deal though it is much much harder to find. 

Stephanie was homeless with 6 kids and after running into her and talking for a few minutes she also told me she was not only living in a homeless shelter but had what’s called a Department of Social Services Voucher which means she can move into any apartment and the landlord will be fully paid every month through a county program indefinitely.

I have told presidents of banks before good luck with those programs but I am not even close to being a customer with those terms.Some banks are in growth mode on certain types of lending and will  get aggressive to land business.
