Change of primary home right after purchase
Recently purchased a primary home with the intention of living there for 12+ months. However, I did not try the commute to work during school sessions (only tried it during the summer) and found out that my original 15-20 minute commute would now turn to 45 min - 1 hr during the school year.
Probably not a big deal to most, but I do not want to spend my time driving in traffic with a manual car...
Miniscule reasons, but now I am looking for homes closer to work with commute of less than 15 minutes and without schools on either side of home. Like moving for work or adding a family member and needing more space, would lending take kindly to this reason and allow me to rent primary home and purchase a secondary?
What options would I have?
Thanks!
