3 months???? Evict

Post notice on door and send one priority mail to both gaurantor and tenant.

Then proceed with eviction. My rental experience taught me to move swiftly once rent is 4 days late and there is no communication. Remove them and get someone in that will hold up his/her end of the lease. Get them out before they possibly destroy your place.

Welcome to BP. There are a lot of great tradesmen in the area, as well as great realtors. If you need any referrals, pm me and I can put you in touch with the professionals that I use.

 Sent you a text. I would look to enlarging room if at all possible. This is a demo.tile has to go imo.

add base and wall cabs, random stack backsplash

only run tile just beyond tub

paint walls satin or above

paint semi ceilings

Sounds good.

Welcome to bp. What is the market you are going after? (Rentals, rehabs, etc.)

edit.... Just read that you are house hacking, which is a good choice. I can meet sometime this upcoming month

Welcome to Tallahassee. Non permitted flips are more manageable imo, as you do not need to involve a gc, and probably best for one starting out. Get a good home inspection so you that you can catch the most of the issues before they become budget killers. I have worked with flippers and will begin doing my own January.

As a gc and home inspector I would be happy to walk a few properties with you to give you some idea of budget. No charge.

Rentals to students are popular but usually a lower cap rate, higher turnover, and higher upkeep costs/repairs.

Know your numbers and always plan for cost overruns.

That is awesome. I live in Tallahassee, and am about to rehab a gulf breeze house. I love hearing stories like yours. Keep it up

@Louis Porter Jr.

Have you viewed neighborhood? Once you have it under contract feel free to reach out to me and I can give you some info. I attended fsu. Have a solid lease and if you are renting to students, get parents to guarantee lease

Explore subject to financing, or perhaps a master lease. This will allow you to control property and affect profitability with little cash and no credit
