FHA Construction for a house hack?

[Richard S Myers]

I have a few questions that I figured would be answered relatively quickly here.

I understand the basics of an FHA loan, 3.5% down, must live in one of the units, must live there for at least a year, etc.

My question is, if I can’t find a fourplex for a decent price, would it be viable, or even permitted to construct a building under those terms?

Thank you
