Next financing move

[Erik Schubert]

I want to make another move, but I'm nervous about mortgaging myself too much, then come the day I want a house of my own, I can't get one. I have one 30 yr mortgage on my plate right now.

I can live in my rental for a few more years, but I'm getting tired of being in an apartment, and being around my tenants.

What should my next move/plan? How have others stepped into this? I don't believe I really care how I get financed, as long as I can get as low of a down payment as possible (at least on an investment) and a decent rate.

My mortgage broker made it seem like he could get me into a single family house, with a loan similar to a 203K, but with out the feds involved. I wouldn't mind that route, fix it up and sell in a year or two, but I feel a multi is a wiser investment for me right now.
