This is something to consider when opting for this 3-5% down payment assistance help (i'd say pros and cons...).The CHENOA comes in 3 flavors, first and foremost there is forgivable 2nd mortgage that is silent meaning there is no payment, but you have to be at 80% AMI or area median income (to buy in LA county this is really hard to do but in Enid, OK it can be done since houses are like 100-120k for a SFR). the 2nd variant of CHENOA DPA is that there is a payment each month for the 2nd loan and income restrictions however the loan is not forgiveable after 3 years you have to pay it payoff eventually, and then the third variant of CHENOA has no income limits which is nice because in LA county you need this to afford most of the prices in the area and its repayable monthly and is not forgiveable after 3 years.Most investor mind house hackers who want a good income component will opt for that 3rd variant because it allows you to be a first time buyer, have higher income, and still get that down payment help and still buy.

Starting years ago with Seattle, Denver, Portland, Phoenix, Vegas, Atlanta and now the Texas cities are the flavor of the month.

So the letters from the neighborhood went unread, a court document with a felons sentence who was illegally occupying the property, provided by the county clerk that day, in-admissible because it was not certified.....all copies of correspondence from plumbers, septic providers and general emails, not admissible, all hear say unless they show up to testify...In a small town, that's a tough pill to swallow and most people don't want to get involved.So a bad tenant, (who went through the background credit check) ends up 5 months of no rent, added a pit bill to a non-pet property, added a boyfriend, (not on the lease) who later became a felon (now in prison) after he aimed a rifle at the sheriff's deputy on a neighborhood complaint, non admissible....hearsay, even though the address of the felon in the court records reflects he resided at the property.No, we did not have an attorney because we thought it would be a no-brainer.....the court system offered no advance help on what would be involved in this process......we'll see what the judge decides....the tenant brought her child to the courtroom, pleading that she has no where to go....Meanwhile, the owner who we represent, legally blind, who lived too far to travel, has a property that was a nice property until this tenant decided to change the flavor of a good neighborhood and put everyone through living hell.

Are there any super delicious places to eat that have animal-less options that we absolutely can't miss out on?

Again, these questions have a bit of turnkey flavor to them, but they work very well when interviewing management companies.
