FHA Multifamily Lending Requirements
I'm familiar with the basics of FHA loans, but haven't worked with one directly in 5 years, so I've heard a lot has changed. When it comes to qualifying for a multifamily building, how does the FHA treat rental income? I know when I first acquired a property with an FHA loan they basically counted 75% (or something like that) of the income towards the income side of my DTI ratio. Also, do they base this off current rents or market rents?
