I know when you buy a foreclosure in Oregon and you intend to live in it you can evict.

Even better if you buy 2-4 units, live in one and rent the rest - then repeat every 12 months.

I was working through the HELOC process since we have quite a lot of equity when I suddenly got denied because 1 of the 5 units is owned by someone who lives overseas and rents out his unit.

A couple strategies that could make sense for a younger person without experience could be a live-in flip or a house hack.

My partner and I have been living in Dutchess for a few years, and are moving a bit north for his work, and are excited at the real estate opportunities this also unlocks.

What if she gets married again and he wants her to move into his place instead of living so close to you?

The only exception is for on-site managers, like you'd find living in one unit of an apartment building and managing the building on behalf of the owner.

Most maintenance won't pop up in the inspection report, its more apt to pop up after having someone live in the property for the first month.
