Runs the three-question FHA multifamily program chooser from fhamultifamily.loan/chooser: returns the likely program (223(f), 221(d)(4) new construction or substantial rehab, 223(a)(7), 241(a), or "not FHA yet"), the reason, and the program page to read next.
Does the property already have an FHA-insured mortgage?
Only when has_fha_loan is true: what the owner needs. Default lower_rate_no_cash_out.
Only when has_fha_loan is false: is the property built and operating (false = land or a construction project)? Default true.
Only when has_fha_loan is false and built is true. heavy_renovation means more than about $55,096 a unit of work. Default stabilized_3_plus_years.
