The programs that allow a lower downpayment of 3-5% are going to require that the property be owner occupied for one year, and would also require PMI until 20% equity is achieved (conventional) or for the life of the loan (FHA).

:P And here's why you can find your HELOC by looking for places NOT advertising 1st position 30yf mortgages [it's related to COVID-19, of course]:To be blunt/crass, a lot of the banks that did both HELOCs and 1st position have taken note that Uncle Sam is still paying a substantially higher profit margin than is normal for a 30yf 1st position mortgage (the "bond buying program," if you want to google).

@Jessica HuynhWith FHA, you also have the ‘self sufficiency test’ for 3 & 4 plexes which is an additional hurdle that most can’t get over in higher priced markets.75% of the entire rental income must cover PITI, which is why a lot of multiplexes don’t qualify for FHA loans without a bigger down payment.The only way to get 10% down programs will be with local credit unions and community banks that offer portfolio/ ‘in house’ loans for owner-occupied plexes.

There are also more favorable loan programs with low-money down, down payment assistance, and no PMI.You can eventually scale into MF stuff but it is the most competitive product and might only be worth it if you are syndicating and have investors who require a lower yield.My townhome units have a way better yield than any multi-family units I have seen.
