The next day they made an offer.

@Mindy JensenCurious if there was additional follow through with this or new insight?

Please provide insight as we are not too familiar with area.Thank you..

First off, you can provide all the links you want about $1266 being the maximum including utilities that section 8 offered in 2021 or even 2020 for that matter but the LARGEST section 8 agency in Detroit (with perhaps the exception of Detroit Housing Commission, aka DHC.) and Michigan which is Michigan State Housing Development Authority, commonly known as MSHDA approves up to $1478 including utilities.

You’ll want to have your numbers in order—this means understanding how much the property could sell for, what repairs might be needed, and what kind of offer makes sense for you.When you do contact the homeowner, be upfront and personable.

@Gino Barbaro I would love to be able to take you up on that offer, but I am moving to Europe for my next duty station in March but I will continue to follow Jake & Gino over seas to stay motivated and in the game!

He offered the course on 8-Track...well, I suspect he did. 

I would look at both and write offers in both markets till you find a deal that works. 

There is nothing wrong with FHA, but most real estate pros would agree that if you are trying to get a seller to accept an offer when there are other competing offers, a conventional loan offer is going to usually be more favorable than an FHA offer at the same price.   

Thank you for your insight Alecia.
