Quote from @V.G Jason: Quote from @Chris Seveney: @V.G JasonI saw today that 30% of jobs now in this country are federal government or government contractorsWe cannot live off trillions of dollar deficits every year - employment is actually negative this year without the government.People lose jobs = cannot pay homes = homes get sold at discount = reset appraisals / lending… You're not wrong, just the sold at discount part I think the floor is going to be higher than people think.

You can assume any government loan as long as you meet the requirements.

I would also shop with a local mortgage broker as currently United Wholesale Mortgage is running a 125 bps special on Government refinances through the end of September meaning if you did go FHA streamline then you should be getting a rate of around 5% (borrower paid)4) If you havent asked, at 700K+ loan tell your lender you want to go Borrower Paid and you expect them to only charge a 1% origination charge fee.

We offer a full range of products for conventional, government (FHA) jumbo. 

I am interested in applying for government grants to invest into multifamily units for government housing.

However we've been hearing a lot about how lucrative Airbnb and 30+ day rentals are, even to businesses/government agencies/etc. so are looking to connect with someone in that space. 

Also, this is a pretty comprehensive book on the subject: https://www.amazon.com/Subsidized-Comprehensive-Government-F...

Mortgage rates declined to their lowest levels in over a year, a sample of more than a dozen industry professionals said they were quoting most borrowers in the high 5% to low 6% range on government loans and in the mid-6% range for conventional mortgages.

So make sure the reasons aren’t protected reasons and be prepared to defend those reasons to the government. 

Many buyers will not sign the first form, so buyer agent will have to get fee from seller or seller's agent with no promise of getting that when first adopting the buyer client. who knows how it will shake out over time, but other trust busting verdicts/government actions usually lead to more efficient transactions for the consumers, ie. lower prices of fees.
