Don't force them out just to sell the home. 

This factor significantly impacts your long-term success and stress levels as a landlord.Be wary of theoretical numbers, especially for C-class properties.

They don't force you to buy anything.  

Buy the rock solid rental and get your appreciation, cash flow, depreciation, principal pay down, equity capture on a discounted by and forced appreciation gain for a well targeted rehab.

A little about me: I'm a two-time combat veteran with the US Air Force.

Only 3 logical reasons:1) Your PMC is terrible and forcing you to handle the eviction- FIRE them!

You’re asking the right question…I’m active duty Air Force with three rental properties, and I have three VA loans.Sometimes purchasing a home that’s close to turnkey may work if the numbers do. 

I would then plan to use this forced equity (since I plan to buy a fixer upper) to invest in another home.I have been constantly reading to househack right into the MFH, but this may take some time for me to acquire the money and purchasing power.

With current rates around 7%, shouldn't there be an opportunity to purchase properties that were bought with adjustable-Rate Mortgages (ARMs) at 3% in past 5-10 years that are hitting their reset period this year 2024 or in 2025?

Overlaid on a deal bought below market value and then force appreciated to a house hack.
