To help mitigate the risk we made the decision to start supporting Section 8 based tenants and currently have about 40% of our portfolio through these programs.

ok, if it's original installation, you may have a shot at it, as most of the lenders I've talked to seem to consider the unit sort of 'tainted', if you will, if it's ever been moved, and will only so a chattel loan and a land loan separately, but not a conventional 30 year amortized. the tag on the home is standard from the factory... if there isn't a certification that the seller has, it may not be an issue for a conventional loan, but if you go for any FHA program, like 203k or standard FHA loan, just assume you'll be paying somewhere in the $500-$800 range for an additional inspection from your lender to determine if the foundation meets FHA standards to be considered a permanent installation.

There has obviously been a lot of discussion about this already, but I wanted to put together a single list of available relief programs and other resources landlords and investors can take advantage of right now.I hope this helps somebody during these challenging times. 

I used Huntington Bank; they offer an awesome “LMIT” Program.

@Pete Mathias I would check with your local housing authority that manages the Section 8 program. 

Hey all,I heard rumors of unintended consequences from taking advantage of forbearance programs.

I signed up for a 5% Down Payment Assistance Program and MCC Mortgage Credit Certificate Program with TSAHC here in Texas.

They just signed a contract this year for an East Side Redevelopment program that looks pretty promising.

@Evan Polaski - I was told by this one lender in Birmingham that I did not qualify for ANY of their programs, at all - and the house in question was going to be my primary residence.

Most of my landlord clients have tenants on programs like Sec. 8 and City FHEPS so they haven't had any issues.Curious to see what other responses you receive...All the best,Abel
