Flips sound like I would really enjoy doing them more, but I have extremely limited knowledge in fixing/repairing homes and don't have much extra time to spend doing it, so I think the "fun" part of having a flip I wouldn't be able to participate in and would just have to hire out.

The $900 covers cleaning cost and compensates us for the hassle and we get a tenant who will be in there and will be happy and will be able to pay.I suggest you get him out as quickly as possible to avoid non-payment (technically if he doesn't pay it will take a while to evict anyway and you'll spend a lot of money).

I've done a little research and found that it would still be considered a rental property with IRS as long as I spend 14 days or less occupying it myself.

So there will be a total of nine in the house hold.

The best equity is the equity you spend (or reinvest elsewhere)  before you lose it...
