I would like to convert my current primary residence to an investment and rent the home.

(whatever it is you use).Some people borrow against their personal residence with a HELOCK for this needed cash, but I've seen those go bad in several instances, and the results were not very pleasant for the borrower.In many instances working a second job can allow you to set aside cash, or you might inherit it, or find a cash filled partner.But the bottom line is, initially your success is measured by how much cash you have to invest.And be careful of Hyperbole.Good Luck!

This means the homeowner must reside on site during the guests’ entire stay.

For instance, the construction loan I got to build my personal residence only required 10% down.

I actually worked with a client in Phoenix not too long ago who was in a similar boat...trying to transfer their loan to a buyer looking to use the property as a primary residence.
