If you buy another primary residence in less than 1 year, then you are committing mortgage fraud.2.

You dont want to commit fraud so just be careful.

I don’t want to unwittingly commit some sort of mortgage fraud so just wanted to see what my options were as far as trying to obtain an owner-occupied rate.

Cash invested: $30,000 Reached out to other investors to let them know I had some capital sitting for now doing nothing because I had other commitments, and one of them reached out to use some funds!

If they ask again for an early check in I let them know it’s really busy and cleaning for The Rona doesn’t allow me to commit to it.

(Assuming that I haven’t been able to find many deals because of there being little to no foreclosures.)With there being no pre-foreclosure market and a lot less deals to go around; what are others doing in their areas to find deals or is this experience not as prevalent in other markets? 

Given that I am in the military, I'm not really emotionally attached to material stuff since I move so much, but I hope to eventually be attached to a property or a business as that'd mean I'd finally commit to some sort of permanency.

I have dabbled in real estate on and off for the last 20 years, but now I am really committed to making things happen as I am looking to transition into the industry and take advantage of the tax loopholes Real Estate has to offer.

Buying a home is a huge commitment and one which should be considered carefully before undertaking.
