Just curious, has anyone used "Globus Lending" for deals recently ? Looking for lending for house hacking

What specifically are you looking for in a "house hacking" loan? Most lenders have loan options available under 10% down for purchasing a primary residence - these are standard conventional and FHA programs. You can live in one room and rent out the other bedrooms to roommates in your house, but in most cases you won't be able to use that "boarder income" to qualify. That just means you need to qualify with your own personal income.

    Can't say I have haha but bought a househack myself last December and used Gold Star.  Might be biased.

    Agree with Stephanie. Can you qualify with a conventional or FHA loan? That's the simplest way to star with house hacking
