Multifamily Properties And FHA Loans
I've been looking into multifamily properties, and some of them accept FHA loans and some don't. I figured maybe it was due to the property's price. But interestingly enough, I saw a $400k duplex that takes FHA loans - and a $260k duplex that does not take FHA loans.
My realtor states that the financing accepted is based on the property.
Can someone explain how this works?
Thanks in advance everyone!

I believe you have to have 4 or less units also. And as Chris M said, there are quirky little things, but honestly my last house I sold fha had 2 inspections because I held it less than 6 months. Neither checked the furnace, one didn't even check the water.
