Basically what you want to do is keep an existing FHA mortgage on a home you will be converting to an investment property. FHA loan are for primary residences only. Moving from one primary residence to another and keeping an existing FHA loan in place is one of the exceptions to this rule. Are you aware that the FHA loan can be assumed by another buyer of the property?
