One tenant of four on the lease moved in on Thursday and moved out Friday saying they did not feel safe in this Nashville  rental.The lease requires 30 day notice plus 3 months rent to terminate lease.

What has bothered me is that with a 12 month lease it is the 13th month that the unit is vacant.

You have to live with that decision under the terms already agreed to in the lease.

I only ask because my car got booted a month ago without warning for vehicle registration and it's the primary reason I'm moving out as soon as the lease is up. 

but your right real estate can be transacted between parties don't need a lawyer or title or escrow company or agents or lenders or anyone but the two parties.. when foreclosure rescue lease back in our state was legal I did a ton of it.. and there simply was no time to involve anyone.. when the seller decided at 10am on Wednesday they needed to take Massive action and their foreclosure was scheduled for the next morning.. 

Does anyone have experience doin this as a landlord (through a master lease)?

What is the lease for the tenants, you won't be able to kick them out if they still have a lot left on the lease, some loan types have requirements on you occupying the property within a certain time frame to get an owner occupied loan..may need to write it in the contract that they get one of the tenants cash for keys to break their lease early, etc at closing.  

Hi all - I have been considering a house hack and I am wondering how you can get a loan as the occupant if you purchase a property that has current tenants with leases.  

Typically you can't rent out a single apartment unit because of sublease clauses in your lease.
