When applying for a mortgage (making assumptions here), the lender will want 3 months of bank statements, W2s, etc.I agree with others here that house hacking (living in a house you are renovating) is the way to go AND in your situation, buying a duplex or similar income producing property will help if you apply for a mortgage. 

As always, be sure to contact your accountant to make sure these situations apply to your property!
