As a mortgage broker I can tell you this is underwriter discretion.

Check the Facebook group "Quad Cities Real Estate Investors" I can do some more research and interview some if you'd like a broker that plays in the space all day.  

If memory servers me the key word is intent.

The only thing that comes to mind may be insurance-related, so I'd recommend speaking to your insurance broker to see if the cost may be different due to fire damage could damage more units at a time.

I invest and broker here in Columbus.

Hey Terri,After doing this for two years as a licensed broker, lender, and wholesaler, I’ve found some great spots in Tampa/St.

I agree with most people that regulations are hard to navigate but I felt comfortable doing this in CO as I am a broker and know the regulations here like the back of my hand lol

2600 Flips as a contractor and over 200 deals of my own.Bet I know as much as most Brokers about Real Estate!

@Bernard Chouinard I doubt you can get a referral fee from a broker as a non licensed individual, but hey, I'm not a lawyer, and I am not in your state haha.

It seems like it would be better to form relationships with brokers, agents, property managers or other people that would have input into many owners.
