My main sticking point is that I am unsure how to find a marketplace that would be worth my time to find MFH properties effectively since I have minimal restrictions.

Caseworker will need to figure out the UAs and tenant's co-pay and maybe do a cursory inspection.If you mean you want an income-restriction on the property, I wouldn't do that.I guess the pros are that you get the voucher amount on the first and if the tenant becomes a PITA you can call the caseworker who can usually pull vouchers as enforcement.Cons are you'll prob be a little lower rent, you still need to collect the co-pay and the tenants (my own anecdotal observations) are tougher on the units. 

I have a feeling 12-18 months from now the lending restrictions wont be as strict. 

@Jesse Munos & @Stephan J Hagen - I've been bouncing around the idea of hosting, but with the COVID restrictions I'm pretty limited in options right now.

Does anyone have any advice about purchasing a SFH in a retirement community? Pros and cons?

Many, if not most local banks have tightened down on cash-out refinances (and are rather wanting to stick to cost-basis refinances, which is no bueno for us chilling BRRRR folks) The banks worth a call right now would likely be First National, Quail Creek, and First Security (a bit slower, but fairly aggressive with lending terms).Be well

If it was a properly registered MAC TRUCK, I'd still have a problem if access was restricted or safety was compromised (if someone got hurt they can go after the truck ower/insurance).

Another day of record coronavirus cases and hospitalizations and several countries, states, and localities responding with activity restrictions seems to have served as a reminder of that.

Many if not most lenders have all kind of lending restrictions on condos....often things like no one owner can own more than 20% of the units....so that leaves the issue of how do you finance the first 5 sales?   

Was tempted to do that since we host a lot of units and would be nice to have an interest in the growth of Airbnb, but concerned on their financials and government restrictions
