@Frederick Wilson

With hard money you will need to refinance out of the hard money loan into a primary residence loan before living in it. Most hard money lenders wont allow you to live in the property. Using a 203k loan or private money will work better for looking to live in the property that needs renovations on a house hack.  Good luck!
