If it were me, I would make nice, put in the grass like it should have been, wait for her lease to be up and let her know when you get to that time frame (not before, you don't want to deal with any passive-aggressiveness) that you won't be renewing and she will be looking for a new place to live.

Looking for a 2-4 plex house using a VA loan w/ $50K cash in August 2017 time-frame. 

If that doesn't work your Sheriff's office will have a procedure that you need to follow with forms, filings and timeframes.

I haven't bought at foreclosure auctions in a LONG time so I don't know the actual time frame.

Do you have some timeframe that you would like to achieve that goal within?  

Adds a bit more in expenses, especially with the cost of electricity in Ontario (at least the unit I am looking at is gas heat opposed to baseboard), but the extra $300-400 roughly in expenses could easily be made up for with the extra $800-1000 in potential rent.

This has all recently changed in the last couple months and I wish I began sooner because I've learned a ton.My goal here is to network with other investors and wholesalers, learn from success stories and/or failures, hear about what other people are doing to find deals in expensive markets like mine (Boston), and hopefully I can help others out as well.Looking forward to connecting with more investors who share the same goals and investing interests as me.

Shace Boluordi what's your time frame and funding source?

As my first property, something on the inexpensive side although not considering 25-100k Baltimore properties.  

Mary, keep in mind that if your target is likely a builder, they don't work on the same seasonal time frame the average home buyer is on.
