I am based in Australia and an Australian citizen looking to start investing in Duplex to  4plex-style residential.

You can house hack a mixed-use commercial property with an owner-occupied loan (and FHA) if the residential square footage is 51% or more.

I have a Vacant Lot zoned Mixed Use in the Cape that I don't know who will buy it, we've only worked with single residential home builders until now.
