Closing up holes is part of preventing them from coming back in and also preventing them from traveling throughout the house.  

@Matthew Ockwell If the house you’re selling has always been your primary residence, what you do with the proceeds doesn’t matter.

I went on the MLS and I saw a lot more houses than what he placed in his list.

I have a couple weeks to the court date, and if I can extend that it may give us time to resolve this.If I need to pay more than my share is there anyway to recoup this when/if the house is sold?

The house itself looks like a very nice acquisition and in great shape, so you did good there.

When I looked on furnished finder there were two properties not far from his house and but not much else closer.

We work with many real estate investors that house RE within their plan.Acting as a private lender has it's limitation inside of the plan though. 

This house currently has no renter though they are actively looking to put one in the home.House 5. rents for $725/m the loan will cost me $13,000 as a down payment and $6,000 closing costs, and should cash flow approx $275/m after mortgage payment are made.House 6. rents for $725/m the loan will cost me $14,000 as a down payment and $6,000 closing costs, and should cash flow approx $250/m after mortgage payment are made.To be able to make this down payment I have the option to:HELOC my current home which cost me about $850/m in repayments OR I can find a hard money lender who would be interested in working with me, I am currently putting together a hard money lender proposal to show a couple family members that would basically look like this: No repayment in the first 12 months, all income going into an account to allow for repairs and emergencies, after that taking the cash flow and splitting it 75/25 to the lender paying it off in approximately 13 years, sooner if we can make extra payments on it and giving the lender an 8% return on his money(about .5% less than what I was quoted for my HELOC).ORI can potentially do a deal with my brother who is also looking to get into real estate and we split the properties 3 a piece.These properties are right outside of a military base in a low income city but have done well for the family currently owning them with consistent long term renters in them.I am looking for any advice as to whether or not this is a deal worth pursuing.

Ex - do I need a lease for each room or whole house lease (but what happens when some move out earlier than others) or?? 

I'm ready to move onto my next house hack.
