For the distant job offer case: There are a number of ways out can play out, depending on circumstances. Can do an owner to owner sale, if possible. Or we can fail over to taking a renter, which (given my position stated above) is less than ideal, but a fine resolution for the short term. Or can always fail over to sale and a move if all else fails. (Which, fwiw, is equivalent to what any home owner taking a distant job offer would face, though more people are impacted. The fall back to renting, though, leaves other owners in the house, to ensure things are well taken care of, at least; much better than the absence landlord situation...)
