@Heather McNicol when you say the program is expensive, can I ask how much the program costs?

Looks like there is one program that has not closed yet in Ohio, maybe not the right county, but I would call anyway, they typically know who else could help.https://nlihc.org/rental-assistance?

The program stipulates that you MUST stay in the home 5 years or you lose a pro rated portion of that 8k.

I'm also a licensed mortgage broker with a lot of fix-and-flip programs, including some that require as little as 10% down on the purchase price, and provide 100% of the rehab funding.

The voucher program typically determines the amount they’ll pay based on their calculations, and you don’t necessarily need to lower your listed price for utility allowances.

In the program, it appears that you offer a Pre-Loan Application-- perhaps this is how the program is legal? 

Home warranty programs charge a trip fee every time you file a claim, and they use that fee to compensate the vendor.

Hey Matt,I am aware of a program that can do that, just shot you a DM

I ended up attending one of those weekend seminars for a few hundred bucks that tries to sell you on a 30k coaching program.

Randi, the program is definitely worth the time, effort and money spent.
