House Hacking FHA Loan

Posted

I've been living with my parents and I am planning on getting an FHA Loan to purchase my first home. I want to house hack and rent all of the rooms out (since with an FHA Loan I have to be a primary resident I cannot rent the whole house out). But I don't want to be living with strangers, I was thinking if I make my own room(something small like in the garage). and only sleep/be at the house half of the time will I still be considered a primary resident and will that be okay with FHA guidelines as long as I don't tell them?
