Hey Daisja - we host a monthly Real Estate meet-up with different topics on a monthly basis at the Brier Creek Carolina Ale House on the third Thursday of every month from 6:30-8:30.

With your focus in using house hacking, Conventional or FHA loans would be your best options.

Hi,I typically rent my 3-bedroom property through a short-term rental platform, but I was recently contacted by an insurance relocation company looking to place a family in temporary housing while work is done on their home.

If you wanted to house hack I would stay where you are at and find one there.

Which insurance providers or claims adjusters typically handle displacement housing arrangements?

Short-term rentals of non-owner-occupied properties will also require a special use variance which is obtainable by starting with the completion of an application in the Zoning Department."

Quote from @Jinxiang Xu: New to being a landlord, and already forked out $20k for foundation repair on this rental house.

I can't house hack because of the family situation so I can't be approved for regular loans that require you to make the property your primary residence. 

The loan is with you, not with your tenant, so none of that means anything to them - in fact because you live in one unit and it's under 4, if you were self-managing you don't even have to abide by fair housing laws (at least on the federal level). 

I have seen this same house that is vacant (all the classic signs) I have located the owner ( I have not reached out to her yet).
