From a property owner perspective, my response is 2 fold

Greatly appreciate the responses

I heartily second @Anthony Dooley's response.

Depending on the state, you're responsible for the total payoff including the entire outstanding balance, arrears and legal costs. 

You haven't described a scenario that would qualify for one of the exceptions, so a "straight no" is the correct response.......Also, you know that FHA loans aren't the only low down payment options out there, right? 

Is the lease NNN or is landlord responsible for roof, HVAC, etc? 

See below the response I got from the state of Oregon..

Our leases have that tenant is responsible for lawn care.

@Dan Bryskin hey Dan thank you for the response that explained a lot of questions. 

We plan on relocating and starting to build a rental portfolio as we learn the area and the quirks of the Eugene market.Thanks very much in advance, I appreciate any and all responses.
