I always try to be on the side of the angels, but a deal that can pass the Doom-and-Gloom test is usually much more solid than one that depends on unicorns and candy sprinkles aligning with the planets. 

A house was left to me, a bank technically owns it because it was reverse mortage.  

I assume the remaining roommate gets another roommate... what if the remaining roommate moves out, and then the only tenant left is the new roommate, who wasn't even on the original lease... who would I give the security deposit to?

In the meantime - I'm left holding the bag.

After a divorce and some recent changes to my W2 job status ... left my employer of 22 years and now contract directly with the same school districts I have provided IT support to for the past 20+ years ... which increased my annual income by $35,000, of course taxes and health insurance have to come out of that $35k, I feel like I am on the right path.On the REI side of things I have an overall understanding of getting started.

However, depending on if they are month to month, how much is left on each current lease, etc., you can change this pretty quickly.

I am afraid that if i loose this prospective tenant due to uncertainty and she buys her home and leaves at the same time, I will be left with a hard long winter.
