Just my personal experience.

Once you have cash in hand, you can unlock the unit for 24 hours and let him move his stuff out.I would also consider charging an additional deposit of $500 or something, just to prevent him from leaving all the trash or stealing your refrigerator.

Additionally, you can still find deals that will cash flow and hit the 1% rule and amazing appreciation potential. 

I’ve been looking into areas like Oakhurst, Mariposa, Yosemite West, and surrounding towns.If you own or manage a vacation rental in this region, I’d love to hear about your experience.

If you are able to add an additional full bath, it sets you apart in the market big time! 

Please reach out if you are a Houston based broker/agent that has experience working with investors.

Would love to connect, regardless of real estate experience I know we could all be of value to one another.  

Any advice on this and experience/tips from others having gone through similar deals would be greatly appreciated!

Any realtors out there can suggest any and explain your experience with them?

I've got about $525K in equity in the property, but lenders have told me that I cannot get a HELOC to access that equity for additional purchases because the duplex was financed as an investment - they have said TX law dictates that HELOC can only be used on primary residences.
