You have Fannie Mae which is Home Path and Freddie Mac which is Home Steps.If it's his girlfriend it's not family but generally you must disclose.There should be an owner occupied period for Home Steps.You CAN just as in HUD submit an investor offer before the investor period opens up and then you already have your offer in but it won't be considered until the bid period ends.If she is buying after the owner occupant period it should not matter.If she is buying before that time she is most likely committing loan fraud and will end up in prison.If for a fact you know that same person is buying in the owner occupant period and signing that they intend to occupy the home then they are committing fraud.It's hard to know what is going on without being there.It could be legit or not depending on the timing and disclosure in buying the property.
