@Sheifta Anwar Highly unlikely….banks know they get the best price by getting on the market and most banks are just servicing for the actual loan holders…and they have policies to put it on the market.

For this reason, I highly recommend the 2 BR option over the 1 BR.

My goal of becoming a broker is two fold:  1) Build a career with high earning potential   2) Use that income paired with the knowledge I would gain to invest. 

Of course, I would highly recommend staying up to date on the laws for when you do move out of the property and onto your next house hack.
