Buy Using First Time Home Buyer And Then Working Out Of Country
I have a strange situation that I'm wondering if I can take advantage of.
I'm married to a foreign citizen and I'd like to buy a duplex using a first time home buyer loan but after a few months I plan on leaving the country. Is it possible that my home can still be considered my primary residence if I'm out of country for an extended period of time so that I may rent legally?
