    Congrats, Fredrick.  Nice work on your Sec 8 rental.  I have clients looking to get into Sec 8.  How was your experience finding tenants?  

    Have you considered an assumable mortgage for your next one?

    Mike sorry for the late response. The Housing Authority was helpful and available for questions. The experience was seamless. Vetting the applicants most important process, as always.
