Can you buy a triplex under 25% down w/o going FHA?
I am looking to buy a triplex and forgot that you can no longer do a 3-5% down conventional program because it is multi-family. I know the seller is a little squeamish and just wants to close quickly and FHA tends to take longer they are more strict about the properties condition (chipping paint etc) and I do not want to scare him away. Are there any workarounds or suggested solutions?
