Buying into a duplex is one way to afford a home without breaking the bank.
But like any bargain, there are strings attached.
Duplex owners must compromise on repairs, maintenance and aesthetic issues with their co-owners.
And while both sides typically agree on the proper course of action, a harmonious relationship isn’t guaranteed.
While living in a duplex isn’t for everyone, getting a loan for a duplex or two-unit as your primary residence is no different (to terms and rates) than getting a condo, townhouse or even a single family residence. Moreover, if one of the units is rented, you can use the rent to qualify for the loan.
