I live in a different unit on the property and thus am an owner-occupant, so CA rent controls should not apply to me.The Problem:  Come September I receive rent in the previous amount, not the new amount. 

Different story, different scenario, but the same applied that I didn't have any PMI on my loan payment.

Not sure if the 4 unit max rule applies to the entire life of the loan or just at time on closing.

I would go with the Crack personally.and the 1% rule doesn't really apply to most or any markets anymore. 

The same criteria apply to the other TK's I invested with.For analysis, I recommend the BP calculators in combination with tools like Rentometer and the local data often provided by the city or county on their websites.

On the other hand, if she applies, her credit score is excellent but her income is very little.How does this work?

My family is also passively on the market looking for a SFH for us to live in, or land to build our home on.FYI I just applied for a HELOC on my 3 family, which I suspect will be ~ $100k line once the appraisal happens (owe $200k @ 2.78 w/14 yrs remaining, suspect $450k value).

Make offer and apply for loan with LLC.
