Maxmimum loan amounts for FHA are the same across the nation for the most part except for the high cost areas of the west, east coast, or specialty markets like Aspen, CO Los angeles, New York, NY, and others as they have higher limits for 1-4 unit FHA loans.

It's still doable, but only for a very small group.

You should always run your numbers for both before you offer just in case something goes haywire on one end.

I've seen new build developments where 10+ units are for rent all at similar prices and sit for months.

Also, verify ALL utilities (don't believe that dang Realtor for one min Wink ) go to the county for sewer and water.

Tax returns for the property are unavailable………………tax returns show consistently large loses8.

Or you just hope for the best and just use the insurance for anything that happens?
