Once you have an FHA loan you are not allowed to have another FHA loan unless relocating a great distance for work.Now that you have exhausted your Low Down Payment Options (Portfolio Conventional and FHA Conventional and FHA) you will need to use a Standard Conventional Loan and put 20% down to get your 3rd Duplex.The sky is the limit...you could continue to buy properties and build an empire or just stop there and enjoy more free time...I have friend who quit his job and just manages his properties now.Keep in mind that this 4 step process I outlined takes time (anywhere from 1 to 10yrs depending on the person) so keep the big picture in mind but don't let it stress you out too much.
