As long as you continue making payments on time your lender should not care that you moved your asset into an LLC. 

If you prefer to work with another loan officer/lender, as long as you have been fully pre-approved, I don't care and I'm not going to lose a closing because of it.However, there is one lender where consistently I have had problems across multiple loan officers. 

San Mateo county, alameda county, Santa Clara county, those counties are the core of Bay Area market that I invest in. pier and beam is good, as long as they are accepted by local building department, particularly for sloped lots.sounds promising.Originally posted by @William B.

You can 100% use an FHA loan for a duplex (or any property that is 4 units or less) as long as the borrower promises to live in one of the units for a period of time (1 year I think?).

Or maybe it doesn't matter, as long as we have a place to send money for purchases, and to get money from rental income etc.

That works so long as prices are trending up and there isn't over-supply.

As long as it passes VA appraisal you should be fine.

@Randy D. as long as you're not over-leveraged and can afford it, having multiple irons in the fire is never a bad thing.
