Unless you have a job offer in Arizona, how is the Loan Officer going to issue you an owner occupied mortgage out of state? 

It currently has 14 out of 17 units occupied, generating a monthly income of $6,300.

We are planning to occupy there for 1 ~ 2 years and looking for cash flow after we leave.

For example in many jurisdictions I can STR units in a duplex but cannot STR an ADU (some jurisdictions will let you STR if you owner occupy).

Assuming you are doing it as an investment property (no-owner occupied) and not a second home, you'd have to put 20%+ down for conventional so you can do DSCR at that point.

The only thing to keep in mind is you need to owner-occupy the property if you buy the property with a VA loan. 2) If you plan on living in one unit self managing would be the best option.

I talked to Chase, but they don’t offer SBA loans for self-storage; they require the owner to occupy a certain percentage of the building/storage, which is not the case with self-storage.

Hello - I’m interested in brokering hard money loans on investment properties (non owner-occupied SFHs, multifamily, other commercial) but am residing in a state that requires a license.

Looking for owner-occupied homes might narrow your options, but it can help you target a specific group of sellers.
