Question about FHA house hacking

Eric Kline
Posted

I have a question about FHA loans. My wife wants to stay in our primary residence and not move into a duplex/quadplex. As a result, I'm thinking about buying a duplex close by, so it can be my primary residence and I would stay there a year or two need be. Can I use an FHA loan if I live in the property by myself or does the whole family need to live there as well? This might be a lender question, but I'm curious to see if anyone has tried this.
