There are programs that don't even look at FICO, but you'll be limited to something like 50% LTV....so you need to have significant equity.

It is a strategy that I've done with my wife 9 times in 8 years, so it is very powerful and you can live for reduced cost and sometimes for free if you do it correctly, and that's my favorite part of it.Regarding the Section 8 question, I'm very familiar with Section 8 since I've down it on about 8 units total in my 20 unit portfolio in Denver, Aurora and Englewood, so I've worked with all the housing authorities and understand the program very well. 

Eventually I'd love to open a non profit and use rentals as part of a program for youth aging out of the foster care system, like independent living.What are your goals in the REI space?

Hi everyone,I’m reaching out to the community for a referral to a rock-solid landlord attorney with deep experience in the Norfolk Housing Court (Dedham/Stoughton) and the Massachusetts Rental Voucher Program (MRVP).I am a live-in landlord (owner-occupant) of multi-family in Canton, MA.

The model involves renting to college students on either an academic calendar or yearly calendar (some kids stay for summer semester).Researching what other landlords do for the the off campus housing program, many will offer the units furnished.
