Today, a day before the showing she said that she will be coming home around the time I am going to show the room to the potential tenant.

Potentially looking at living in my first property for a year as this would be $300 - $400 less in current rent, while I fix it then rent it out after that year.

If everything is up to code, mortgage approval should be straightforward for potential buyers.

With the lower tenants smoking downstairs, and the smell of their smoke wafting into the upstairs, we are concerned that smoke smell will turn some potential renters away.I know we need to honor the lease that the tenants were under before we bought the property. 

It offers a unique mix of growth potential and a conducive environment for investments to flourish.

It's not rocket science. correct, exactly like i said, the zEstimate comps from comparable house in the same complex could be wider as 1 std deviation. but potential seller is also not accurate if they said their neighbour can sell for 1 mil and they expect the same while the house is only being able to be sold for $900k , for example.I do notice, the market where DOM is strongest, the zEstimate would be more accurate.If your DOM is above 50 then forget about to use it at all.

If the total is less than 75% of the ARV, then I know there’s a potential profit of 12 to 15% of the ARV.

Josephine your situation sounds scary and frustrating at best and potential fraud activity at worst.

You want to invest just to have a place to live and potentially offsetting your mortgage payment by renting out the vacated rooms or having x amount of cashflow in the future?
