Plan is to buy an entire duplex, move in with my husband in one side and rent the other side out. Can this be done with fha loan and still for 3.5% down? by carolineiyg75789189 from Urbana, Illinois. Feb 27th 2015
Yes, you sure can as long as credit and income is sufficient. Please click on my logo if you would like more information.
Yes.. FHA allows you to purchase up to 4 units so long as you occupy one unit as your primary residence.. but understand that FHA does not lend money.. they only insure loans against default.. the lenders, or those with the $$$, will oftentimes have their own rules above what FHA calls for.. It's these "Overlays" that might require a larger down payment or restrict the property type.. For this reason, I suggest you contact a local mortgage broker, and not a bank or credit union.. Brokers deal with multiple lenders ( I have 21 ) with each lender offering a different set of rules.. the more lenders, the more lending options and the greater likelihood of your loan getting approved.. I'm a Broker here in Scottsdale AZ and I only lend in Arizona. If you or someone you know is looking for financing options, feel free to contact me or pass along my information. William J.

Sure thing, just get the process started to be pre-approved.
