Ok now that I've removed that silly 3 post lock...

I am currently a renter and am looking into buying two properties. One immediately and one in a year. I plan to purchase the 1st condo and live in it for a year before placing it up for rent. At that time I'd like to purchase another condo and live in it as my primary residence. Can I get a standard mortgage on both of these properties or will I be forced to a higher "investment" interest rate?

Condo #1
Would like to buy now.
Cost $235,000
Will rent out in 1 year for $1900/month.
5% Down

Condo #2
Would like to buy in 1 year.
Cost $400,000
Will live in it as my principal residence at that time.
20% Down

My income is $103,000/year. Will I qualify for both of these mortgages when the rental income is added?

In my opinion, why would anyone want to buy any property right now? Whether you can qualify or not? Here is a quote and a link: "No one can accuse the Fed of not trying hard enough. To reverse the biggest housing market collapse since the 1930s, the Fed embarked on an unprecedented program of buying up hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of mortgage bonds and driving mortgage rates to record lows. Despite that effort, private investors remain leery of putting up cash to back mortgages: roughly nine of our 10 new loans are still backed by the government." The Link: http://bottomline.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/12/13/9420052-fed-battling-economic-forces-beyond-its-control What is this saying? It's saying its a manipulated market to me. Save your money, buy 4 properties later. Not to mention the 29 lockboxes for a complex of 172 or 16.8% with only 4 currently on the market. manipulated manipulated manipulated.
