Hello everyone,I'm an investor currently looking to expand into the Huntsville, AL area.

House hacking seems to be a great option for this area, so I would love to learn more about this if people have experience on this topic.

I have called 20 banks and no one does a 1st lien on investment properties except 1 stated they would if owner occupied.During the research I read a website, which stated that 1st lien HELOCS on non-occupied are illegal and not allowed by Federal Law.Anyone know if this is true?

Glad to be part of this warm-welcomed community!

Is this true? 

My question is with all of the apps and technology these days, is it worth trying to manage this property on my own?

But what about this option - you get on the phone with the individual and a realtor and let this person give the realtor access.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Is this a Capital expenditure or an operating expense?

She hasn't paid yet this month, but we'll see...This FMR change is just another example of how things can change.
