For example the building may not fall under the rules of the FHA if it is owner-occupied with 4 units or less, if it’s a single family home rented by the owner and you have less than 5 rentals, or if the property is operated by a religious organization or a private club.

Almost all of the NPN lists that get circulated to the average investors are for owner occupied properties. 

I’m married with two kids so we occupy the entire main floor.

Hello, what i'm wondering is, if you buy a tax certificate and the original owner is still occupying the property can you legally make them leave or pay rent?  

My lease requires tenant insurance and is clear that all the tenant gets is a reduction of rent for the days the unit is not occupied.

Park Makeup 3 TOHs, 6 POHs(Ones a Doublewide if that matters), and One Empty pad that I could use for projections for DSCR according to one commercial lender.Is there any way to better gauge what a park might appraise for if looked at for only pad rents occupied by mobile homes?

By listing and renting on the OTA’s like AirBnb and VRBO you never lose the ability to occupy the property because they are not facilitation a legal lease agreement.  

Hello everyone! this is my first time here and also my first time getting into the real estate investing game. A very rocky start tbh. I thought I was getting an amazing deal but what I'm ending up with is; essentiall...

Roof and attic insulation are key factors in controlling the heat load.Commercial HVAC sizing is based on that plus the addition of heat from air supplied from the outside to replace "stale" air indoors - local ordinances often require specified amounts of air replacement - in an occupied space and also from the number and activity of individuals expected to occupy that space.

That’s why I haven’t dealt with residential owner occupied property in the last 15 years, and stick to commercial.
