Conventional 97 House Hacking Strategy

[Christian Pitre]

Hello, 

I am new to BiggerPockets and have done some research through the forums as well as listened in to the podcast.

I am formulating a traditional house hacking strategy for the upcoming year, preferably in the Arlington, TX area and I am seeing very little talk about the conventional 97 loan option. For an individual who has never owned a home and fits all of the necessary requirements of the loan, do you believe this is a good loan option for my first investment property? Please do not pull any punches I’m here to learn. :)

Thanks!
