Jonah Molina Hawaii is a primary market and there fore you won’t see the rent to value ratios to support cashflow.

I have a plan to: a) Rehab my primary residence in Orange Countyb) Purchase a fixer-upper and have it rehabbed (relocation to either LA or Inland Empire).  

Thanks for your response.I would say my primary reasons for wanting to put the properties I plan to acquire in an LLC are:Personal Asset ProtectionEstablish/Build Business Credit

For Primary, it can go up to 80%.There are few special rules for Cashout Refi in Texas that falls under Section 50 (A) 6 but those only apply to homestead properties.

What you are implying beyond just getting mail at the property is that you would at some point sign a statement that you would be occupying the property as a primary residence.

So I am new and looking into my financing options. My question is if my wife bought our house before we got married, and I am not on the mortgage would I be able to buy a duplex on a FHA or 203 loan. Say I live there ...

Which I would repay with a Home Equity Line within a month after purchase, or with a traditional mortgage within 6 months...

Due to the crushing effects of the Dodd Frank Act and horrendous over-regulation that crippled America's mortgage industry, many Mortgage Lenders and most Private Lenders won't touch Primary or 2nd Home financing with a 30 ft pole anymore!

The primary cities that I'm considering right now are Jacksonville, Charlotte, or the Raleigh/Durham area. 

Hello, can I still deduct on my taxes the interest from a HELOC on my primary residence?
