Conventional or FHA Loan for 3-Unit?
Hi All, I am looking to purchase a 3 unit property as a primary residence (live in one, rent out other two). Do I have to use an FHA loan or can I do a 5% down conventional loan? I have been told different things by different people, such as I can only use a conventional loan for a single family home. Wondering if this is true? Any input is appreciated!
