@Marko BukvaAs long as you be living in 1 of the units as your primary residence, then you can do an FHA 203k.If this property will be a flip or you will not live in it as your primary, then you can do a conventional rehab loan like the Homestyle or the CHOICERenovation. 

It needs little repair/work as the owner is a contractor and his daughter initially lived in the home, so he's kept it up-to-date.

I own two properties, one my mom lives in and the other, my ex wife lives in.
