So if you are talking about buying a 6 to 20 unit building I would stick to Abilene.

It was going to be a new build.

When speaking to the owner (building rapport), your main goal is to figure out which of these main 3 is most important to them.

@Noah Mencia just because people paid too much for existing or new construction homes doors not mean that all new construction is overpriced.I have investors building at $125/sq ft and then triple net leasing their property to a management company.

Hi- Does anyone here have any experience in buying a project based Section 8 building, we are in middle of some negotiations. 

I'm not sure what exactly you're looking for in a real estate agent, but she's very responsive, gets offers written up and sent out fast, and will remind me to think about certain factors regarding the area/property when I get off-track.

By having more tenants there are more eyes to watch for issues that may pop up, more people paying rent, and if you have one of the units vacant for a bit, it will not hurt the bank as bad as it would if you only have two tenants in the building and one of them left.   

There are several large brand new affordable housing buildings being finished less than a mile away, that will also pull potential renters from this property.I'm not sure where you pulled your numbers from, but I wouldn't be surprised to see that property rent for less than $3k/mo for the entire house.
