He made it sound as easy as picking up a Big Mac.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac limit you to 10 mortgaged properties.

@Bryan Cavellier Your lender is right that's how the guidelines are for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  

Today, voice controlled devices are in may peoples homes.

So far, I actually have not seen anything about Mac, but I will keep an ear out.

@Michael Fagan this is a somewhat common topic so I'll elaborate a little here in case this is research by others (you may know some of this already so just hang tight until the last part).Conventional - I'll define these as loans that come from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (if you recognize those names).

General Eligibility Requirements For the HomeReady Loan:- 620 minimum credit- property must be a primary residence - 5% down payment required for 2-4 Unit Properties (3% minimum borrower contribution)- 3% down payment required for 1-unit (no minimum borrower contribution)Eligible Property Types- PUDS - Freddie Mac approved condos - multi-width manufactured homes- CHOICEhome As you can see the HomePossible program is an excellent option that offers the flexibility that buyers want.

By conventional I mean fannie mae/freddie mac loans. 

Some of the options I see are Freddie Mac's Home Possible loan, Fannie Mae's Home Ready loan, or go through a local lender for a Portfolio loan.
