Covering a significant portion of my mortgage has been a great reward.Solution: My four levels of vetting have helped me find quality room-renters over the last 18 months.I think you already have the answers to your situation.

Will rent out the unit we’re leaving which covers about 65% of our new mortgage, if we pocketed it but that stays in the rental fund.

Yes we were successful winning bidding wars 3 months ago using the family postcard technique;) Basically, we added a cute picture of our family along with our offers (which were based on conventional financing) and our “humanity” made us win over the cash offers.

House hacking lets you live in one unit and rent out the others, which can help cover your mortgage and generate some extra income.

Until then, hopefully you can charge enough to at least cover your expenses. 

Diving into creative financing options like you’ve done shows initiative, and you're clearly thinking about the big picture.
