Thanks for the response @Scott M. yeah I had a feeling I was just going to have to deal with him for the next few months but just got to a point where I was looking for an escape hatch lol. I did let him know actually a month or two ago at this point so he knows he is leaving and that’s probably adding to the issues even more. 

If the boat tips over I suppose a good reset wouldn’t hurt lol 

Thanks again 

Hey everyone! 
I have a bedroom rental that has been great, love everyone there except for one guy who has just caused some major issues in the house but it’s such an unusual situation I have had a tough time deciding the best action. He is the only person in the house that is on a one year lease and it ends in august so not long to go, finally! It’s been a long year.

The home is all women and then him and he is very very OCD and obsessive about everything in the house along with being a 6.5 ft abrasive guy he constantly is causing issues with other tenants over trivial things. At this point the women in the house are scared of him and not sure what he will do especially after he leaves, as in retaliation. I really want to force him out even sooner but not sure it’s worth the fight since he technically hasn’t done anything illegal or physical to anyone in the house...yet. I’ve tried all other option like paying him or finding him another place but he loves the house and doesn’t want to leave. It’s been a fight to just tell him I can’t renew his lease. 
Do I have a leg to stand on for removing him or just ride it out until the end of summer? 

Hey @Shiny Sasidharan ! sorry for the late response but as noted above for some reason the discussion was taken down:( but I will definitely add you! unfortunately I will have to skip it this time around since our spot is not available but I will continue on next month on the last Saturday of the month 

Sent! 😎

That would be awesome @Michael Haas! I know I would definitely be down for that and as always, thankyou for taking the time to allow us to use the space we have been using...looking forward to seeing everyone!

It would be great to see you there @Avian Noowin, 

I am planning on setting it up again for the last Saturday of the month at 5 pm. I will reach out to those Who have attended but Anyone who is interested in going please shoot me a message so I can send over the details! 

Hey everyone! hoping to get this deal fine tuned and detailed out to try and close it.

looking at 3 parcels in a row by the same owner in Renton outside of seattle area 

lot one has a house that is pretty trashed, currently worth $300 to $325-needs $100k of work lot is 15,000 sq ft

second lot has a manufactured house and garage built in early 2000s also worth $300 to $350- lot is 27,000 sq ft 

third lot is raw land also at 27,000 sq ft- Saw a lot half the size and on a corner up the street sold for $22k last year but I am trying to calculate the worth of this lot 

Buying all three together for $650 so all of the money would end up being in the land and and I use hard money the fees would be around $36k if i can just sell the two houses as is to pay the loan off quickly. 

The purchase doesn't work at much more than the $650 range and I'm trying to see what I could offer to motivate the seller to do seller financing to avoid the fees associated with hard money. 

Sorry this post is so long but any insight would be greatly appreciated

@Katie LaPoint it did happen last month but we have been having them on the last Saturday of every month. Unfortunately I am out of town the last weekend of this month so we will be pushing it to next month, but I hope to see you there! I will post on this forum about it next month.
