Basically I would create roof piece by piece to resolved the issue.

Edit: never mind, I missed the part you said about modeling an existing home.  Please ignore the below.

 

Are you modeling an existing condition?  If the roof plan shows correctly then @syman2000 has perfectly nailed the roof model in his file.

 

However, if it a new roof design then I am trying to understand the intent of the offset portion of the roof?  Why would you want to complicate the roof framing and waterproofing when it can be simpler?  If it is for aesthetic then so be it, although viewing it from the viewpoint of a person standing on the ground wouldn't make much of a difference.
