My question is what do I need to do to get the tax reduce to the value that am paying for it, so that over $200 will not be going to tax from my rent.Secondly, we are closing by the end of this month can I still get the tax adjustment done to reflect in the tax for 2011Thanks

No part of rents may be credited to any purchase price in Section 8, the landlord is taken off the approved list and the tenant will lose entitlements.Equity will be based on the fair market rents established by appraisal, not the contract, so the buyer is under the impression they have an equity for the LTV and they generally will not have other funds to adjust the required LTVs.Lots of problems with RTOs, insurance, taxes and seller can refinance.

Rents can be adjusted upward for more people, but don't price yourself as a 4 bedroom either.

Bob, the 3% is for conventional/govt. loan purposes without adjusting the LTV of the loan.

Our adjusted gross income exceeds 150k so I hope our accountant can get creative.
