Hi everyone, we have a 6-plex property in Tacoma, WA and during our due diligence period we found the use code is really a 4-plex.

@David Zheng Wow great post and what a mover on the REI.  

The only way to get there is by ferry or drive south through Tacoma, WA from Seattle.

PLEASE could anyone in the Tacoma area help me out with any suggestions of an experienced eviction lawyer with a lot of experience who would charge a flat rate?

Also, while it's close to everything, it is in East Tacoma, WA, not exactly the nicest area.Option A: I've thought about 1031 into another house that is paid off with cash on top for a bit nicer, newer place.

I am now usually the oldest guy in the room and all these young movers and shakers keep me going and exicted everyday.I mean most of my clients are either no older than my children or younger..

Seattle is a very hot market right now, a 1BR condo in QA costs almost the same as a duplex in Tacoma or Arlington.

It's one of the fastest growing ares in town so rental rates are great there as well Real Estate Investor from Tacoma, Washington
