Why is my lender saying im supposed to occupy for 2 yrs
Hey bp! I talked to the lender who I got me my 5% down Owner occupy conventional loan and he is under the impression that I need to occupy the home for 2years before I can rent the property. After our conversation I looked over all of my loan docs a few times and couldn't find anything stating I have to live in the property for 2years. I did find the section in my docs that states I would need to occupy for 1year. So is it 1 yr or 2 yrs? What do you think is going on here?

Two years occupancy is about selling and not having to pay capital gains taxes. Two different things entirely.
