I've seen some people house hack a single family home by renting out the rooms, but keep in mind that traditional lenders would not be able to use the income from renting out the rooms (known as boarder income) towards additional income on the application.

One challenge to manage is being able to clarify for lenders on those rentals (if you have them) which amount of the premium should be paid for each rental so that they do not include the entire premium into their escrow analysis, inflating your monthly payment on that rental. 

SubTo, "Subject To" is not a contract between the new owner and the lender.

A "miserable corporate job to no where" isn't all that bad - health insurance benefits, 401k matching, probably some sort of discount stock purchase plan, stability, lenders like it.

That's a non tear down resale as well.

@Juliann Morala Yep, a buyers agent that works exclusively with investors will have all the info you need and lots of options on contractors, lenders, attorneys, inspectors, property managers.

Correct2. 100 hours could work if it's more than anyone else spent on the property including non-owners3.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

That would make this much more complicated, since you'd likely need lender approval.In any event, you'll want to check your mortgage (if you have one) and the lease to see if you can transfer or assign.

I have also spoken to a commercial lender and Elite sounds a lot better.
