House Hacking a Mixed-Use?

[Fabio Selmi]

So today I was talking to my mentor and we were considering different real estate strategies to expand my horizons.

He mentioned mixed-use properties, which I honestly have never considered as an investment. Since my strategy would definitely involve house hacking, I was thinking about house hacking with a mixed-use property.

It could be interesting to evaluate as a strategy, but only if I can access financing with a low downpayment.

How would that work from a financing standpoint? Any lender or investor has experience on this?

As usual, hat tip to @Bruce Woodruff who always nudges me to explore something new and learn more about it.
