House Hacking 2 Homes in 2 Years

[Kyle Janes]

Hello, I am very new to the world of Real Estate Investing and Bigger Pockets. I am in the "learning and gaining as much information as possible" phase before I start my Real Estate Investing journey. I and my soon to be fiance will be first time home buyers so we will both qualify for an FHA loan. My question is, are we able to house hack our first property using an FHA loan under my name, move out in a year and house hack another property using an FHA loan under her name? Any information or helpful tips regarding this would be greatly appreciated!
