Condos can be eligible for RM if the property is FHA approved, and recent law changes make it easier for condo boards to achieve FHA approval. You may need to petition your board to seek this approval if it hasn't been already. However, if your condo has a co-op ownership structure, then you likely are out of luck.
Also, recent changes from the President has added additional fees to RMs, making them significantly less attractive for Single-Family Homeowners as well, so the product is basically dying a slow death at this point.
