(HUD is selling as FHA Insurable if that makes a difference -- I dont see how this house would qualify for traditional FHA financing but maybe FHA loan underwriters hit the crack pipe every now and again and would let this one slide)  I wont have an issue getting financing as an owner occupant due to my banking connections/past experience but am unsure how most will get financing on the O/O side  most local investors will likely ignore the windows and pass them off to the next owner sadly if they are flipping.  

I am correct to understand that renting out rooms in my house doesn't effect my eligibility for the exclusion?
