I would buy  out the tenant, assist as much as possible in locating a new home for them as well as assist with their physical move.The mistake would be entirely my responsibility and I would do what ever is necessary to comply with the HOA.If the tenants refuse to move I would file a eviction and hope it will be motivation enough to get them to reconsider moving.

“Point of contact information” refers to any means by which to contact the brokerage firm or individual licensee including mailing address(es), physical street address(es), e-mail address(es), telephone number(s) or facsimile telephone number(s).

@Anthony Gayden, besides you wearing a Blue collar, you would be a light blue, you have paperwork to do at a desk but you are also out there physically doing work, so your a blend of the two.

Bryan,Here are the 3 main options to consider:1) Custodial self-directed IRA, lower upfront cost but watch out for transaction and asset based fees, have to go through custodian for every transaction, might be inconvenient for certain investments. 2) Checkbook IRA (aka Checkbook IRA), eliminate transaction fees, higher upfront cost because of special purpose LLC, but long term will provide savings and most importantly a convenience of having checkbook control over your retirement assets. 3) Truly self-directed Solo 401k, requires self-employment activity or small business, the best option if you qualify.

In the meantime can you add extra locks to the basement or someOther method to physically keep everyone out of the basement?

However, in California a physical address is required for the purposes of serving personal notice. ( Summons and Complaint)

Looking at properties online (MLS, Auction Sites, etc), physically looking at properties in consideration, putting in offers, going to closings, meeting contractors, checking progress on projects, going to RE meets, going to RE seminars, driving time to these events and locations?

If the business or rental space was physically part of the living area of your home, such as a spare room used as a bed-and-breakfast bedroom or attic space used as a home office, your business usage doesn’t affect your gain/loss calculations.

At the moment I don't have the courage to be physically social, along with worrying about being able to finance deals, and networking (though it's mostly because of the first thing I mentioned).

There are several companies that do qualified exchanges buy allowing you to hold shares of real estate indirectly, but the physical real estate assets are owned directly by the companies.
