Most families receiving this type of assistance stay in the rental for an average of nine years, plus the government sends you a check on the first of every month for full market value rent.† Check your local housing and development authority for opportunities in your area.† Many cities are offering incentives to investors interested in certain neighborhoods so check with your city planner, neighborhood associations, and government agencies in your area to find out what may be available to you.† As with any purchase these days make sure you buy the property at a low enough price that a temporary rent reduction will not eliminate your cash flow.Offer the property for rent for $500 a month more than you actually need and advertise that discounted rent available to qualified renters.† In this case you offer to reduce the rent $500 a month if they agree to take care of any problems with repair costs of $500 or less.
