Am not sure if code 396 applies to specific counties in CA or to all of CA as a whole.

Im rehabbing both upstairs and downstairs and planning on house hacking (living upstairs and renting the downstairs)How many of you apply for permits from the city to have it permitted as a Duplex and not a single family?

So may question is if I own a property in an LLC will I still be able to apply for an FHA if I were to buy a multi family and live in one of the units?

Because it is a personal decision which needs to be based on education which is then applied to your personal situation.I know what I might do in a similar situation (as would other people).
