To live in one of the rentals? Or not to?
I'm working with a loan officer to see how much I can get approved for. Looking to purchase a 2-4 unit rental. My question: which is beneficial. To live in 1 of the units? Or not to?
I don't own any property currently but I have in the past.
My accountant says, not to live on the rental property.
Loan officer says, live on the property.
See my dilemma...
Thank you
Gina
