I am a former police officer of 18 yrs, currently in my 3rd Yr of Law School, worked as a Part-Time Realtor from August 2012 to October 2013 (my license is current but I'm not with a Broker at this time), and I am dedicated to Real Estate Investing during my last 1 1/2 of Law School and beyond as I plan to use Real Estate Investing as my main avenue of investing when practicing law.

Does USDA not require 5-yrs of owner-occupancy?
