I am a vet and have used my VA loan to house hack 4 times.

It depends on what kind of loans you are trying to qualify for.

The returns for performing loans such as these are less than those from non-performing loans but so are the risks and time spent.Performing loan brokers hang in different arenas than those involved in non-performing loans.

I personally like the University of Toledo area for student housing, which is his bread and butter.   

M my loan never closed.

If it's a rental, just give the loan with interest and when you refinances take the payout.

@Tracy Thielman I mean, getting an accurate % of how many of us are using these loans might be a little hard but most of us are using these loans. 

I help investors structure financing for fix & flip, BRRRR, and bridge loans, so if you’d like some guidance, I’m here to help.

The dislike of FHA loans, particularly by experienced realtors who represent the seller, is twofold: FHA loan appraisals are more aggressive in the "nitpicky-ness" of relatively minor cosmetic issues, and buyers with FHA loans tend not to be as financially sound and reliable as other loan programs. 

My conclusion is that we need to adjust the LTV lower on our loans.
