I always snag them when I see them and instruct my staff to do the same.

@Pete Mathias I would check with your local housing authority that manages the Section 8 program. 

Hey all,I heard rumors of unintended consequences from taking advantage of forbearance programs.

I signed up for a 5% Down Payment Assistance Program and MCC Mortgage Credit Certificate Program with TSAHC here in Texas.

They just signed a contract this year for an East Side Redevelopment program that looks pretty promising.

@Evan Polaski - I was told by this one lender in Birmingham that I did not qualify for ANY of their programs, at all - and the house in question was going to be my primary residence.

Most of my landlord clients have tenants on programs like Sec. 8 and City FHEPS so they haven't had any issues.Curious to see what other responses you receive...All the best,Abel

This is not for a house hack, I am living in my first home, and I participated in my local gov'ts 'first time home buyer' program.

There are BRRRR programs on there (once we clear through this COVID-19 period and they come back online) where the appraiser does the initial appraisal on the "as is" and "subject to" value. 

Or maybe not so bad, considering the current lack of funding for the program.
