Residential property on commercial zone (C1)

Hi, I am under contract to buy a property that is 5 min north of Weatherford downtown. It is a single family home but zoned as commercial (Code C1). The seller said that it is dual zoned (I am not sure if it is possible for a property/land to be dual zoned) but the city's website shows it is C1. 

There is a tenant living in the property but will move out before closing. I originally planed to rehab and rent out for a residential tenant. My question is, is it possible to use this property as residential rental after I purchase it? If it could cause any issue, I would not close it. Would appreciate any advice!

Hey Jason. I live in this area and wonder if this is the same house I looked at buying about a year ago on W. 4th. If it is, the owner told me that the house would have to be used as commercial after closing. If it is the same house, sounds like the owner may be changing his story in order to sell it easier. Either way, I would contact the city and confirm before closing. Good luck!
