Thank you for replying, would I have to refinance to a traditional loan after I move out?

Should we cash out refinance out primary residence to pull more cash out or should we just use own cash reserve+ HELOC for next down payment and any extra fees?

My question is the following, if I buy an investment property (while continuing to rent where I live), does that prevent me from qualifying for an FHA loan later on when looking to own my primary residence?

A primary residence and House Hacking is always a good place to start - you can buy a duplex live in one and invest in the other.

Also, we’d like to get a lower interest rate on that duplex as a primary home.

They come with a cost per square foot that is slightly higher than traditional storage but they clearly have other benefits that can offset this.

This is a great vehicle for retirement wealth building, where the investor has more control over what they are invested in compared to traditional investments such as stocks, bonds and mutual funds.

My friend has one on her primary residence and has used it 3 times since purchasing without much hassle.

Take a HELOC and house hack a 2, 3, or 4 unit with only 5% down as your primary residence.

Many people in that town do not get traditional loans so this can be an option as well.
