One of the upstairs bedrooms had this sticker on the wall.In the basement and the garage it appears that they sprayed white paint of some sort on all the surfaces. 

@Michael Gabriel please forward that info, I’ve already submitted an offer with contingencies that has a financing clause amongst other things that’ll hopefully allow me to withdraw if things don’t appear at it seems

@Lisa Maturo Not everyone qualifies for FHA, so you might as well take advantage of the program while you're qualified and can live in it!

I believe that guy I spoke about ^ had a list of contractors that are already approved through their program.  

(The program is Healthy Neighborhoods Program).I guess my question is .. being that I would like to get into investing ASAP and i feel like this would be a great small step , are there any more options out there that would be more optimal for my situation (hard money lender, other programs, better routes)? 

Jerry, there are several insurance programs for flips.  

@Simon W. it appears on the right hand side of the screen usually!

That program is encouraging her to make as little as she can lol.

I think what you are referencing t=is the guru programs that are out there and mentor programs?

Here's how the process works as I understand it:1) You list your property2) Tenant expresses interest     a) you do your background check - if approved:3) Tenant gives you their S-8 RTA form     a) You fill out your portion and return it to S-84) They determine if your rent is within their market guidelines     a) If it is not, then they say "hey,  your rent is too high for our program, we'll only allow $635/mo, not $650" (as an example)     b) It's up to you at that time to determine if you will accept the lower amount or not.
