Would that cause issues with my owner occupancy status?

The owner occupancy laws may or may not apply since (I'm assuming) your daughters name is not the one on the property.

Some handymen will not understand why you need this 1099 form because no owner occupant homeowner will ever ask for it because they cannot deduct the paint job against their taxes.Definitely do not recommend paying 50% upfront.

A RMLA is for owner occupants.

In addition to an accommodations tax that you have to pay, you also have to be an owner occupant. 

I'm looking for ideas to try and incentivize investors to fill in their occupancy gaps AND support these non-profits.

For a 4 Bedroom, how do 4 single unrelated occupants compare to a family in your opinion?

Hey @Matthew Odou - here are some metrics I look at when evaluating a cash flow market:Population growthJob growth with higher wagesBusiness-friendlyDiverse economyStrong occupancy ratesAcquisition price-to-rent ratioLandlord friendlyInfrastructure developmentLifestyle amenitiesEducationGoogle will be your best friend when analyzing markets.

Nothing wrong with each of you doing fha for duplex if you guys qualify for it and abide by their owner occupancy rules meaning each of you will be owner occupying the property for the min 1 year duration.Also, when you cosign for someone, even though that loan will stay on your credit report for as long as your on the loan….after 12 months of successful, on time payments by the original borrower, the loan will no longer count against you for your debt to income ratio.hope that makes sense and best of luck!

When you get to that bleeding-edge 50% occupancy fair market value in your multi, you'll see that almost 100% of your tenants will be satisfiers.
