I greet the house. 

In return for the City's rehabilitation assistance, participants agree to certain long term (5-20 years) rent and occupancy restrictions which provide for the continued availability of the housing to lower income families at an affordable rent.

@Dan BoweThere are groups out there that would like to have your skill set.

I recently inherited my mother's house, and I'm excited to kick off my real estate journey with it as a tribute to her.

My plan is to house hack a duplex by using the equity in my current single family house to fund the down payment.

Now if you have a general person who stops in to do other small tasks or do more property management style tasks (walking through the house to inspect for damages, drop anything off guests may need, change water/HVAC filters etc.)

Is the next step to fill out the Request for Tenancy Approval form, have the tenant confirm their agreement, and then send it to the Public Housing Authority to schedule an inspection?

I built a house there which I sold in 2011. 

Their name is Southern Impression Homes, and they build new and set up property management and are positioned as a turn key investment opportunity.

Given what you described (house hacking, FHA loan) a license will have little affect on your success in the first few years.
