Currently, I live in Hawaii, house hacking my own property, and am looking to expand into out-of-state long-term rentals.My goals now are to master the art of wholesaling, continue raising private money, and build a strong portfolio of long-term rentals.

Wishing you continued success! 

The only way you will have a reliable income is if a reliable tenant continuously occupies your property (your “customer”).

It's worth noting, however, that in the long term, housing markets with abundant vacant land can significantly increase their inventory if policies and economic conditions favor builders.In markets like Las Vegas, where undeveloped land is limited, and population growth is strong and steady, housing inventory will continue to tighten.

Perhaps, it is best that we terminate the lease because I can’t continue accepting late payments until the lease is up.  

The fastest way back is getting a full time job or acquire rental properties/units/apt's since rental income can be used instantly (75% of gross - PITIA monthly payment = net rental Income asap/instantly).All other forms of full doc income receipt of the income to utilize it on a loan application like alimony (needs 3-6 months of receipt + 36 months of continuation).

If there were, you would see some cracks in the foundation, and the slopes would worsen over time, so continue to monitor.Maybe the next time you do a larger renovation, you address the structural issues, but if it were me, I'd likely do anything until that time.

So what is the answer to getting access to our equity for those of us who have some but don't really want to continue acquiring properties.

Continuing to move this project forward!
