How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

They are super hard to find reviews for.

They didn't find the deal.  

Additionally you can still find positive cash flow, the 1% rule, and you get AMAZING appreciation here.

Given that it's almost a 50% increase from the existing rent price, you might want to set a timeline of 2 or 3 months before it taking effect so they can find alternative housing if they plan on vacating instead of staying at that price point.Another option could be to ask for the rent increase, but offer something in return.

I am finding plenty of information online about the program but nothing explaining how it is directly impacting buyers looking to buy and hold property in the city.

Granted, you should have enough contingencies to cover all your bases.Why try to find a loan for emd?

@Olivier Colson You will first want to find out if the locality has any “Just cause” regulations that prevent you from non renewal, or any other provisions that may keep a section 8 tenant in place.

(2) Are there any property management companies that can help us buy, finance and manage the apartment complexes and where can I find them? 

Or get creative with seller financing, find good appreciation, decrease operating expenses with a team...
