I agreed to accept the property tenant occupied because honestly it helped me deflect competition and I got a great price.

Only you can decide where you go from here and I honestly do not envy your position. 

Yes, but it does not have to be that extreme.

I'm honestly looking to do a walk through with the calculator tool to evaluate and be able to determine a good rental property deal. 

If you do want to invest and keep buying properties having a lender that will field your questions and be honest with you is important. #2 If you are buying a property as owner occupancy financing it has to be your primary residence.

But I was just being honest and most people who own these kind of properties are wise to making a deal.

Basically, they don't want to take the risk that if things don't go as planned, having to chase you across the border.Smaller more local banks may be more flexible if you are buying 'small' properties but if you are looking for a mid-sized (250K - 2M) commercial loan - it can be extremely difficult.Good luck - Oren

I personally would not buy that deal in Brooklyn to be honest :))
