I've read that hiring a private insurance adjuster can be a good idea, and that I should ask the insurance to provide for housing/hotel, as well as keep all receipts for eating out since we don't have a kitchen anymore.Any info & advice will be greatly appreciated!

At this point, we want to move out the tenant and providing generous move out package - one month hotel stay, one month rent back, hold fee for next apartment etc, but the tenant is not -cooperating and also blackmailing us based on situation.

The knowledge they gained far outweighed the cost of the flight and hotel.

Rent it out (refi or heloc)Bought Aug 2017:   128500Renovations:           6000Appraised in 2018: 185000Overhead:                1350/month (Mortgage, ins, tax, HOA)Potential Rent:         1700-1800/monthThere are plans in the next few months to break ground on a new high-rise fifteen feet from the balcony of my unit which would completely block my view, a HUGE selling point for my building.The new building next door will be a high end hotel with nice restaurants on the first floor so long-term it would be good for the area. 

Whole different vibe than a hotel alternative.

A friend of mine just got a hotel in Jamaica, she claims it will pay off in 3 year.

The room costs $735,000, but the hotel manages it and rents it out on behalf of the owner. 

The area is not the worst or best, but someone could save money over the hotels in the area and have some privacy to boot. 

I want to eventually start an alternative/DIY homes contracting business where we build upscale container homes, geodesic domes, tiny homes, convert trailers into themed hotel rooms etc so seeking for some solid advice in that realm. 

Also, if you live in one of the units you could do AirBnB for the other units and I don't think it would be considered a "hotel" since you live in the property as well (check that though).
