Second home on a duplex out of state?
Hi guys,
I am trying to buy a duplex out of state. I wanted to buy it as a second home but my lender is saying that since I do not live/work in that state plus it is not a single family, the only way I can buy it if I do it as a rental (20-25% down). Do you guys know if there is a way around it?
Thank you so much!
