If he helps out, you should have no problem finding someone to occupy shortly after he moves out.

I am purchasing a $2.3 Million Office Building IN GA and do not have time to wait for SBA.  6500 Square Feet , Owner Occupied, 45 Day Close, can put 25% down, any suggestions. 

When someone advertises an occupied MFH around around market rents I assume $5k-8K per door.

The house was occupied by renters so we were able collect rent during the redemption period.

That's why investing 5% in an owner-occupied home is such an awesome deal (even with slightly higher interest, PMI).As you amortize this debt over time, this seriously hurts your return compared to a normal investment in the stock market, because your equity % is going higher and higher.

Many builders have owner occupy requirements to keep developments form being overrun by investors. 

If you used that for the residence you live in now you could likely refinance that to a conventional loan possibly pulling out some funds for repairs, safety net, or another deal and then get a new VA loan for an owner occupied house hack.

In New Jersey this might look like buy a four unit for $500k with owner occupied loan, 15% down 3.25% loan (or even fha at 3.5% down but you are likely to overpay to a seller for a fha loan), rehab for 100k, property appraises for $860k after renovations and rent increases.

However, due to a lack of inventory and me having to use an FHA loan for multi-families (I don't have 15-25% set aside for a down payment on a multifamily that would be required with an owner-occupied conventional loan), I have not had much luck in finding anything worthwhile. 

I'm aware that investment loans are strict on not being for owner occupied which is why I'm interested in knowing whether renting to myself gets around that?
