I’ve used big banks (Wells Fargo) I’ve used local banks (TCF & NSB) I’ve used credit uninions (cccu) and internet banks (NASB & axos).

While I can understand some of the desire for rent control there are other more practical and productive ways to assist families in need of housing (IE fix the broken section 8 programs around the country)  I would prefer however that all of you out of state investors get out of "our town" so that the prices can go back to normal for us locals, which should in turn help keep rents down a bit locally .....

I’m working with a program, Military Housing Assistance Fund (MHAF.org) to help in buying process.

If the tenant is willing to allow the vendor in unsupervised, that's an agreement they can make themselves.I only escort the vendor if there's a legitimate reason to assist or if I want to use it as an opportunity to inspect.

Have you talked to them about applying for the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP)?

My biggest challenge right now is figuring out how to get internet coverage out there. 

If anyone can assist with a recommendation it would be greatly appreciated.

I recommend finding a realtor that your can partner with and becoming an assistant.

@Patrick Prunty would a credit card with a $15k - $20k limit and an introductory 0% interest rate for 1 year be a good option to assist Alex with funding repairs? 

This is where I believe it is critical to get the info from someone that knows the post Dodd Frank way of doing it, and not in pieces from the internet.
