My wife and I are moving into one of our apartments (4 plex) and I'm wondering if, because we will be living there as a primary residence, are we exempt from any of the renting laws?

Keep in mind in my case I have an 800 credit score, two rentals, and a primary home if that changes anything from the banks point of view.

Yes you're supposed to live at the property for at least one year as your primary residence which means at least 51% of the time. 

I don’t think this would get the tax breaks you get for a primary residence

My question is around purchasing the next home and moving into it as my primary residence.

What strategy is this...a slow flip that you are living in, a traditional rehab and sell, your primary residence you intend to inhabit forever?

Don’t use online resources as a primary source of data to base your decision making on when investing in RE.

@Nicole Heasley If you are looking to purchase a single family home as a primary residence you can get away with as little as 3% down.

I applied for a HELOC from the same bank that holds my mortgage on my primary residence.

@Wayne Brooks @Kim Martin I encountered with a property in TN under foreclosure by the bank and I've been told that for a period of 21 days I, as investor, can not bid on it (fiest dibs goes to people who will gonna use it as primary residence).I guess this may change on case by case scenario.
