@Michael DeRienzo

Owner occupying a multi-family would be my suggestion. What area are you looking to purchase in? You shouldn't use all $30K for down payment, so you have some reserves. To have $10K left in cash, you're looking at a max purchase price of ~$550k assuming you can get FHA without many repairs needed.
