.- Purchase a 2-4 unit with an fha loan- After one year, I can buy a 1 unit with a HomeReady loan w/ 3% downB)- Don’t refinance fha - Buy a 1 unit with HomeReady loanThe opportunity cost here is not refinance get fha and missing out on an additional stream of income from getting another multi.I just started with my research and I know there is more out there.What I highly suggest those starting out to do as a short term plan is- buy a 2-4 unit with the HomePossible loan w/ 5% down- after 1 year, buy another 2-4 unit with an fha loan with 3.5% down- after 1 year, buy a 1 unit with 3% downI heard this plan recently on the JF1401 podcast.
