Conventional loans are available for owner occupied duplexes - they are treated as a single family home in terms of mortgages and down payments. Low interest loans are still available for FIRST TIME home buyers through FHA. The minimum downpayment is still as low as 3% for qualified borrowers - but only until the end of the year. It will increase to 3.5% as of January 2009. Here's a link to get you started on the research: Interest.com mortgage info and

Live in one unit and rent out the other to cover most of your mortgage
This duplex was once a single family house - convert it back when you saved enough cash and you have a large two storey home without having to sell and move again.


This duplex NEEDS NOTHING - all the TLC has been put into it over the years. It is in move-in and relax condition.
- Inside is freshly painted top to bottom
- All major appliances are included
- 2005 new furnaces
- Clean, bright basement (not creepy like some)
- 11' x 22' Dry storage room in basement
- 2002 complete tear-off roof
- 2007 new carpet upper unit
- new storm windows


The years we've lived here we've found it to be such a convenient location.
- Bus stop 1/2 block
- Airport & Amtrack 5 minutes
- Freeway 5 minutes
- Friendly, honest mechanic (next door)
- Library, schools, churches, groceries, hardware, home improvement 5 minutes or less
- Restaurants and lunch spots in walking distance


Many freebies come with it (owner is downsizing & moving out of state)
- gardening & lawn equipment
- patio table, chairs, lawn chairs
- dehumidifier
- tools & matching paint
- 2 window air conditioners for upper unit


EASY to rent upper - it has never gone unoccupied (that means no loss of income for you). Rented at $550 for years, could be raised to $600-650.


Lower is the owner's unit and could be rented for around $700, maybe more.


MORE amenities:
- separate utilities
- 2.5 detached garage
- car turnaround so no backing out onto street
- private entrances
- central AC in lower unit
- safe, stable neighborhood
- extra large lot (not squeezed in)
