This is critical to your continued success if you are new to investing. 

@Robert DelVecchioI believe that on Zillow under "Price / Tax History" it will initially list the price the house is for sale, then when an offer is pending Zillow will add a line that states "Pending" under "EVENT" but will continue to use the initial list price under "PRICE".

If it were me, I would just keep the tenant in place, and continue using the $775.00 towards paying down the money used to purchase and rehab the home.

This way I'm able to rent out all of the units and continue not having to pay rent.My questions are -- (1) How does the FHA know whether or not you live onsite?

I gave the landlord +30 day notice that my current roommate is moving out, but that I would like to continue to live here.

If you are 20-40 years of age and plan on continuing on working at your current job for the next 5 years, I would suggest you take out a loan from your 401K or retirement that plan to be used as a down payment on your next property.

For the reasons you list above, the tenant is not sure they will continue to need the property and would not sign a long-term lease makes it risky for everyone involved.But it doesn't hurt to try.

HELOC is a good option for lower closing costs, though rates are probably higher than a mortgage and may continue rising.

Welcome to BP, Danielle.I used to live in Vegas as well, and continue to invest there, although I’m used to a different segment of the market.
