Buy House Hack with FHA and live in driveway in a converter van?
I am looking to purchase a house hack in between now and when my lease is up in my townhome. I have this big itch to buy a converter van and go travel the USA. With that being said I know people will house hack, rent out the rooms and sleep on the couch or convert the living room to another bed room. I was curious if me living in a van in the driveway would still fall under the guidelines for an FHA loan? I am wanting to travel weeks at a time but I do not know if it would be considered my primary residence or if the van would be? I am trying to find ways to build equity while I travel and work remote.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! As well as anyone else who has experience traveling the country in a van!
Thanks
