We are looking to upgrade our primary residence (and our investment property).

Tell them upfront it's a rental property and not your primary residence, and you won't get your time wasted.

We are lucky to have pretty good equity positions in our 4plex and primary, 1 of 2 VA loans available, and a fairly diverse set of retirement supports (3 years from drawing military pension, mutual funds/TSP/ROTH  savings, and our 4plex).The problems I am trying to solve: I need some help to figure out a long term financing strategy to maximize the assets I have to buy more MF properties over the next 3-5 years while I have my W2 income.

The points cost is often not worth the lessened down payment.Would you consider buying a duplex, or 3 or 4 unit, and occupying one of the units as your primary residence?

Hey there, I've lived in my current primary residence for the last 26 months in a row. 

Buying a primary residence in Q1 2022

Sec 121 is for the tax free sale of your primary residence that you've lived in for 2 out of the 5 years prior to sale.We made this a two step process.1.

I am inquiring about a primary residence property in Newark, New Jersey.

My wife and I bought our first property (primary) back in June 2020 in LA.We are now thinking of buying another property as a 2nd home in San Diego, since my job is relocating to SD (while my wife still works in LA).We are looking for a SFH where I get to use/stay at one of the rooms and thinking of renting out other remaining rooms.If we start getting rental incomes from the 2nd home, does it automatically make it as an investment property even though I would live there for more than 10% of rented times?

I am currently doing a cash out refi on my primary home.
