The most common and effective way to do this is by calling buyer, FSBO, and expired leads.

@Lesleigh S.Depends on your current loan situation, but one of the more common ways to do this is to transfer the property into your personal name if you plan to refinance. 

You’ll have a lot better results with a purpose built property than trying to split a house and expect guests to share common space with someone else.

You know what's even more common today?

@Larry Fullard You strategy is certainly one common way to use a HELOC.

Is this more of a tenancy in common situation?

We just had a tenant move out, she had been a really good tenant for 4 years, but when we didn't return all her security deposit, it was jeckle and hide, she went crazy saying how we were scam artists and she'd report us to whatever..   

It's more common when you've got a 1031 in process than it is when you're selling. 

Common contingencies are inspection, financing and appraisal.
