Duplex... Impossible? I am being told so.

[Vanessa Carvajal]

I have been looking for duplexes. I have been working with a real estate agent that always find a way to discourage me or tell me how impossible it is to get financing for a duplex with FHA? is that right? is it impossible? should i look into conventional loans only? or is it time to find a different real estate agent? Am i being unrealistic when i am trying to find something tat will be a good investment that could be purchased with low down payment (3-3.5%) and fha?Please help! I don't want to get discouraged when i am just now getting started.
