My mortgage lender is telling me that we would have to put 30% down on a conventional loan to purchase a multi-family even if it will be owner occupied.

I have a pre approval for a conventional loan at the moment but I would like to know what things do you look for when seeking out a hard money loan?

Got another quick question: I’m still not fully set on if I want to house hack a larger multi family or get a single family on a conventional loan and rent out.

I am wondering if this can be a solution for investors with more than 10 investment properties.They claim that "The property’s cash flow may be utilized for investment properties in lieu of conventional methods".
