You'll typically need to set up your account and get familiar with the process of working with the local housing authority.

I’m starting off wanting to get into a primary residence that I plan to house hack and then figure out the next move into investment properties but that’s down the roadwith all that said, are there other ways that im not thinking of to 1.

Get a house in a great neighborhood during the summer 2025 and sell my primary in spring 2026.

Consider house hacking when rates and prices are a little more balanced with reality.

This should be directed at every Guru, Nuru or seller of programs out there. 

Sellers are always going to look at more money down more favorably unless the agent explains the why behind doing the FHA, especially in a competitive market.

We had to bring the 1925 house to 2023 code which involved un-installing 26 windows that were already nicely installed (in appearance) in the house, reframing them to 2023 standards (at the time) which also involved strapping the bottom of the wood framing with metal straps (mind you this all after we had already completed the inside renovation).  

I plan to purchase a primary residence, multi-family home (2-5 units, 'house-hack'). 

If I sell one house per year, it will pay for itself.

Consider exploring strategies like house-hacking or BRRRR, and connect with a mentor or local meetups.
