Im more a hands on learning definitely and as far as living in a unit i couldn't yet because its out of the kids school district  plus the limited space. but thats the goal, to buy a small air or inn to manage and run for work while still renting in our district and then looking to buy since we're renters again!

Since this will be a lengthy process I will attwmpt to fill these units up with short term office tenants, or anyone that is looking for storage space. 

If so you may have some full doc options which have the best rates typically and terms.Like others have mentioned you have DSCR loans too but this only allows you to purchase non owner occupied properties (not primary residence or second home occupancy type properties).

Background: purchased property with inherited tenants. Tenant had bf living with them I made bf sign lease amendment to be on lease. Tenant informed me they would be leaving February first. (M2M Lease)A couple days la...

its very easy.. tehre are 35 states that do NOT require any license to do NON owner occupied loans.. very simple  talk to local attorney have them prep your note and mortgage and your good to go.. should not cost more that 1k or so for the docs..

But they have the affordable priced properties......in comparison to the top non affordable states in the union. its also forcing us local guys out to the Andersons and kokomos too because we cant compete with the large funds bank account.

From what you have given us, we don't have enough information to pass judgment.

Creators are selling contents and we are selling time of the space.

I think this is your moment, friends in the multifamily space, and that if you let it pass, you might not get better terms.It can, and, I believe, will, get WAY worse for borrowers in the multifamily and CRE spaces.
