Does 1 year of 1099 form enough for an FHA 203k or a Homestyle loan?
I'm looking to buy a fixer duplex in order to rehab and househack. I only have one 1099 form. Would lenders make an exception with this? What can I do in order to qualify?

The only way to find out is talk to a lender. Common misconception is that you need to have all your ducks in a row BEFORE talking to a lender.
A good lender or loan officer will see your specific financial profile, tell you what is and isnt possible, and ultimately should give you suggestions on what to aim for and focus on so that you can get what you need to eventually be ready to purchase.
