Avoiding FHA loans through community banks
I'm still in the process of learning about investing and banking money. Is it possible to avoid FHA loans even with low money down (3.5-5%) by going through community banks? I know there's a lot of talk about how community banks are more likely to loan to investors. I'm willing to go the FHA route if I can find a duplex or house with another living area, but if I could find a great deal on a single family dwelling for an investment property, would it be possible to avoid an FHA loan without 20-25% down?
