Being that I now actually qualify as a "first time home buyer" and my verifiable self employed income is relatively low, I thought it could be interesting to check out what's available.Please feel free to connect with me directly with a response is that's more appropriate.And thanks again everyone.

@Patrick SnokeIf you are self-employed look into opening a solo 401k and then investing it passively in trust deeds/promissory notes secured by real estate.

For a couple who wants a MF home, can afford a reasonable down payment, can cover the monthly payments, will have additional income charging rent on a 2nd/3rd unit in the building, however may not have the extensive credit/employment history on paper.

They make you feel like you are in the stone ages.I'm switching to a solo 401K, but I can do this because I am truly self employed.  

Hello, Does anyone currently employ RENTERS WAREHOUSE in the twin cities area to manage their property or properties?

Currently employed and want to replace the W2 with real estate investing income (flipping & buy and hold).  

I currently have what I believe to be a fair amount of money invested in the stock market, and that'll only grow thanks to the vesting of additional equity from my employer.  

Does your occupation affect your credit score?

I don't see that a bank would approve of the loan given the lack of employment history related to being a college student.
