It is a little over a hour from where I live and would like to house an Army family.

Either the owner or the co-host will need to live locally in order to register.

If you live in one unit and do the house hacking thing, your mortgage gets subsidized. 

If you do have clients that fall in this world then just find a title company that can provide the assistance here. 

We are looking to buy in East/Central Texas, but live in West Texas.

Let me know if you need assistance!

You’re probably better off buying it as a primary and living in half. 

Here are a few potential types:* House hackers trying to figure out how to do accounting (I fall into this category, as I live in one unit of a 2-unit property)* Real estate agents who need accounting software, or transaction management software, or marketing software (I also fall into this category)* Landlords who self-manage and want something to help them with marketing, tenant management, accepting rents, etc., and also need bookkeeping/accounting software.

If it's an FHA loan, the lender cannot foreclose as long as the borrower is living there and up on the taxes, insurance, HOA, and property condition.

I live in a nice area and I can still walk for dollars and find lots of leads.
