Several of my investor clients have dealt with similar situations in North Carolina, and here’s my take based on those experiences.First, you’re right about the legal framework: NC landlords must make reasonable efforts to re-rent the property, but tenants remain liable for the rent until a new tenant is found.

I am going through that right now with my mom and step dad.

And you're right- I don't want to manage anymore!...

I will say the abatement if you do it right with a good contractor will be pricy since they have to abide by some different regulations on disposing of it. 

I have never been able to utilize any DPA with any deal as of now, but it is fun to keep it as a possible tool for use in the right situation. 

I feel like right now is one of the hardest times to find deals, but I still want to start asap and go slow and steady, with a long term plan.

Currently the other unit is empty and wasn't sure how to handle the taxes regarding this, so I am looking for refences of an accountant in the Phoenix Metro who does house hack taxes.If you have any other pieces of advice or wisdom for landlord and tenant rights it would be greatly appreciated. 

-The mention of syndication being less risky than HML...I'd suggest it is more risk, possibly much much more since you don't know whether you are good or bad at vetting the operator right now.
