hi, im jeff, i am interested in multifamily dwellings in the atl or pgh market. i am fairly new to investing and am currently enrolled in a coaching program during which  i have been able to meet many people in the business and have garnered quite a few relationships with some seasoned players. i am looking to learn  all i can so that i can help those people and communities that want to improve their situations as well as make a profit . 

I know USDA rural housing loans have an option to roll in repair costs as well and a lot of my county qualifies for the 0% rural housing loan program. 

Is it worth the money to use this program?

@Steve Matthews  My bank offers a Debt Service Program, very similar to the old NINA program which is no income and no asset.  

Im using all the available new home buyer programs.

You need a lender that offers the multiple financed properties program.  

I am aware there are state and federal programs to help subsidize the cost of purchasing affordable housing units.

Saturday, November 5th I signed up for a Homeownership Program, hopefully that class will be a crash course in the industry jargon, as well as giving me more information.

I graduated from NYU's real estate program this May'16.  

Also check out the Housing Forward program in Maywood.
