Looking for a lender for a small FHA loan

[Mark H.]

Hello all,

I am currently looking in the Cincinnati, OH market for my first "house hack" SFH, duplex, triplex, or quadplex in the 50k-100k range. I am planning on getting an FHA loan. I have good credit, a decent amount of savings, and no debt. However, I am in college and therefore only working 28-32 hours a week; in addition, I have switched jobs quite a bit in the past 2-3 years due to internships.

Will my work history affect my ability to get a loan? I have heard that small banks are more likely to be more flexible with their loan requirements - Any suggestions for local banks in the Cincinnati area that deal with FHA loans?

Thanks, everyone!
