I have actually done this and can say that it is a pretty complex process with many rules.

It's a long-term learning process, but an interesting and often profitable journey - best of luck to you!

Maybe it's a processing fee, an application fee, etc?  

This can be a very long and annoying process and you're not guaranteed to get approved.

I’m looking to buy a vehicle this weekend, specifically to transport supplies to and from my rental property, and to work on the property in between tenants; the property is 700 miles away.

Insurance- need a broker.PM- farm out or you better be good at process management. 

The broker/LO misses something that gets caught late in the process and blows the loan up.

I am in the process of suing him and just finding out now that he's done this not once, not twice...But 4 times AT LEAST.

And you can do it with little cash, 5% down conventional is better than 3.5% FHA.House hacking also gives you a chance to cut your teeth in all major skills: analyzing deals, buying process, financing, working with contractors, advertising for rent, background checks, property management.

The city’s diverse economy, which spans transportation, healthcare, and education, provides a solid foundation for long-term growth.
