Hello,FHA only does primary residences. For an investment property, you would need to use the Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac products.

FHA is a primary property loan only. You can NOT use that to purchase a rental property, unless it is a multi-unit property and you intend to live in one of the units. Also, FHA is not a first time home buyer loan, although it is popular with first time home buyers. For FHA loans in MN, WI, or SD, visit me at www.MortgagesUnlimited.biz
