Can rental income from a two-family help me qualify?

Rental income from a two-family property can sometimes count toward loan qualification, but the rules vary by lender and loan program, and most require either a signed lease from an existing tenant or an appraiser's rental income estimate before counting it. Not every lender treats projected income from a unit that isn't currently rented the same way.
