I am following Brandon Turners method of emergency rent reduction program.

Cancel memberships you don't use. 

I bought the BP membership, used the software and saved myself from making a mistake on several properties until I finally found one that cash flows.

As we’re approaching the second and third week of tenants possibly being impacted by Covid-19 furloughs I’m curious if anyone knows of resources we can share with tenants when they approach asking for forbearance or payment plans.I know KS has put a halt on judicial processes for evictions and whatnot, so I’m curious if they also have setup some sort of funds or programs to help ppl get through a rough month or two?

If they work with us, we’ll work with them.Another thing we’re doing is providing a list of rental assistance and unemployment programs.

Republican or Democrat wants to be known as the person that shut down an affordable housing program on their watch.

I'm kind of expecting these programs to be stood up and funded on a national level otherwise there is going to be huge eviction problem this summer.

FHA allows 3.5% down on 1-4 units...UNLESS YOU HAVE A NON-OCCUPANT CO-SIGNER.And so, my loan officer worked for about 10 days to find another appraiser who was willing to categorize the property as a single family (again, that’s how it was zoned with the county, and because of the layout, locking or unlocking one door at the base of the stairs makes either the entire home accessible to one family, or splits it into separate units.)The seller agreed to wait for this appraisal, and luckily, the new appraiser classified the property as an SFR, but once the loan got to underwriting, the FHA-board decided that due to the upstairs kitchen and the completely separate utilities, this home would STILL be classified as a duplex, and therefore, with a non-occupant co-borrower, I’d be required to put down 25%.This is probably a good point to mention that I’m using a first-time home buyer program for the state of Oklahoma, which gifts you 3.5% for your down payment.
