The government wants there to be a line between residential and commercial lending if possible.You can own up to 10 individual financed properties through a residential lender. 

The government is paying all or most of your rent so you don't have to worry much about getting paid.Section 8 pays 110% of market rents in my area.  

The hearing will be held at the County Government Center, located at 385 N.

The grants help, but like anything else from the government this has strings attached and will take more time.

A great diversity of employment, government, education, medical, tech, some manufacturing...

@Jack D. and @Wendy Liu, my friend told me that collection of rents, city government, and lack of appreciation all made him wish he had never invested there. 

Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac are quasi-government entities that provide a person with up to 10 lower rate residential mortgages. 

The local Government has invested in the infrastructure immediately neighboring this subdivision (streets, commercial expansion) and new local business is on the rise in the surrounding area.

Safest loans out there, they aren't just backed by you and your credit and the collateral, they are also guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the US Federal Government.

If everyone in the US ran their household budget the way the government/state/feds run a budget, run up debt, sell more and more bonds, and print more and more money - everyone would be broke.
