Dan, may I ask where you got that information? I have again gone to the FIG, SEG and GIR and don't find anything but the following on investment properties:
Investment property. A property is an investment property if the applicant or borrower
does not occupy the property. For example, if a person purchases a property, does not
occupy the property, and generates income by renting the property, the property is an
investment property. Similarly, if a person purchases a property, does not occupy the
property, and does not generate income by renting the property, but intends to generate
income by selling the property, the property is an investment property. Comment 4(a)(6)-4.
If a corporation purchases a property that is a Dwelling and uses it for the long-term
residence of its employees, the property is an investment property, even if the corporation
considers the property as owned for business purposes rather than investment purposes,
does not generate income by renting the property, and does not intend to generate income
by selling the property. If the property is for transitory use by employees, the property
would not be considered a Dwelling. Comment 4(a)(6)-4.
