FHA loan on 4-plex in Southern California
Hello all, I am curious to know if anyone recently has been able to finance a 4-plex with an FHA loan. I know the self-sufficiency test makes it extremely challenging but was anyone able to grab a property and if so would be able to share with me the numbers. I am curious on this strategy and am hoping I can execute over the next year or two. I would be willing to live within an hour of downtown LA if I can find the right property. So LA county, most of orange county, edge of san Bernardino county, and edge of Ventura county are options. Looking forward to hearing any responses. The real estate market has gotten very pricey and I am not sure I will be able to save 20-25% down to grab a 4-plex as fast as properties are appreciating.
