During times of inflation, increased interest rates & cost of construction are two drivers for an increase in rental demand.

A primary residence is where your mail is delivered, where you have utility bills in your name mailed to that address, where your driver's license says you live, where your w-2 and IRS etc. are filed.A second home is a part time owner occupant and is usually 100 miles away and in a resort area.Four units in another state while you own single family where wife lives is not owner occupied. 

She said he's a truck driver that is constantly delivering between Greensboro, NC and Chicago, IL.

@Russell Brazil the lender I was working with said I'd have to do 20% as I already have a primary residence and driver's license in VA.

I literally am on a first name basis with my Amazon driver.

Make sure you change the address on your drivers license, get owners insurance not landlords insurance, put all the utilities in your name, move in and rent out your previous primary. 

I'm writing now because I've been at the center of all coordination and communication - our property manager for the association has been supportive in working on this, but I'm clearly the one in the driver's seat.

They are not going to vet anyone who stays 4-5 nights beyond a CC and driver's license.

Also, it will be a long time before I can actually benefit from not having to deal with the messy wax when replacing them....My main driver for switching away from wax was that there are basically two things that joint comes in contact with (aside from water): poop and wax.  

I currently work as a semi-truck driver doing long-haul loads.
