Should I look into an alternative financing solution so I can pay the bank and fire the GC so I can move the project forward? 

Hi all,I'm hoping to get some feedback from Section 8 landlords.  I'm working on my first rehab that will be designated as a S8 rental.  This will be in Macon, GA and the guidelines state the house must have a heat so...

I have a background in AI and sell solutions in this space for municipal systems as part of my 'day job'. 

Is it the solution for EVERY aspect of finding a great deal?

I would think the only possible compliant solution would be to offer virtual tours, as this would not be a physical operation.

There also may be opportunities for creative solutions depending on the seller's situation.One thing I would be very hesitant about is "no repairs needed." 

These types of photos can help potential tenants imagine what it would be like living in your property.Social media Solutions and StrategiesNever underestimate the power of personal connection.

Unless you are well known to be a reliable buyer, there are so many times when people made offers sight unseen just to "reserve" the property and then back out after looking at it.  

I'm sure the defense will be they wanted to get the deal done for you and made a decision to get the closing completed because that was the only solution anyway.

It seems after listening to a few of the podcasts there are alternative solutions that would be better suited to start and grow and wouldn't have to wait the 2 years to refi.My logic was that the VA Loan is $0/down on your 1st mortgage and 20% down on a second mortgage and I didn't think I would be able to afford the 20% down on a property in Hawaii.
