		<description><![CDATA[In a lending market that requires an investor to put 25 percent down on a four unit property, and an owner occupant just 3.5 percent on the same building, it would seem happy days are here again for live-in landlords.
After all, don&#8217;t more units always mean more money?
In this case, yes. And yes.
It seems the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a quiet bit of good news for Minneapolis duplex buyers in the mortgage market this week.
PHH Home Loans and two of its mortgage insurance companies removed the &#8220;declining market&#8221; label from the Twin Cities.
For the last couple of years, lenders deemed a metropolitan area a &#8220;declining market&#8221; if the Federal Housing Finance Agency Home [...]]]></description>

As he was using FHA financing, the glitch involved a software problem in the computer system of the federal government. Basically, he had written an offer earlier in the year on a different property, which we were unable [...]]]></description>

The answer is yes, which may seem obvious. But, doing so [...]]]></description>

One of the many advantages for home buyers in today&#8217;s tumultuous housing market are the generous FHA loan caps for multi-family properties in the Twin Cities metro area.
 
Wait? You can get an FHA loan for an income property? You betcha (as they say around here).
 
While you and I may see a fourplex or a duplex as [...]]]></description>

I had a panic attack the other day when a co-worker informed me she just had clients get turned down for a loan because &#8220;FHA is no longer letting you count 75 percent of a property&#8217;s rental income toward qualifying for the loan&#8221;.
 
Gulp. That would nearly destroy the owner-occupied duplex market.
 
So I did some digging.

		<description><![CDATA[Back in the olden days &#8212; when gas was cheap and property went up in value&#8230;as long as 18 months ago&#8230;the federal government&#8217;s department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) implemented &#8220;anti-flipping&#8221; rules to help stem fraud during the housing boom.
