I will be living in one side and the other side has tenants in the Section 8 program paying in total, 1k in rent every month; this covers about 80% of the mortgage. 

I have attached our product sheet, which is a summary of the lending programs we offer.

IMO much better to use asset protection programs that utilize current laws.

If there are other programs out there that I didn't mention, please mention them also with feedback.

Reality: I got a lot of free materials and decor from the Lowes Loop program.

Feel free to pick apart my plan and ideas =)@Allen Duan Hey Allen, Welcome to the real estate investing world; we are partnered with Wells Fargo, and they currently have a good program that allows you to purchase a property with 0-3% down.

Purchase price: $205,000 Sale price: $205,000 I worked with the city's down payment assistance program, where I receive $10,000 (forgiven in 5 years) to pay for my down payment and closing costs.

@Zac Smith We are currently working on insurance programs for similar properties in TX and the new business rates for the insurance on larger complexes has exploded in the last 6 months. 

Plus, if you're a first-time home buyer (altogether), there are multiple programs and grants to help with the down payment.If you're interested and don't have a realtor, shoot me a message.

I want to say the home path mortgage program (I can't remember the exact name) allows for 5% down but PMI falls off at 20% equity.
