They are there to build you into a stronger business person and leader, to open yourself up for MORE.It took me 4 months to get traction for my FIRST ASSIGNMENT DEAL (after losing everything in my first 5 out of state deals... if you haven't read the story, here it is again... ) , but once you learn and build MOMENTUM, things get easier and faster...until they halt again, as there's another lesson you need to learn as you grow into the next version of YOU, and YOUR BUSINESS.

Do I just cut ties and get her out to start fresh with a new paying tenant?

Instead of tying up your money all in one property.

I myself appreciate the creative thinking, but you'll want to generally be aware of how that would play out if you could indeed do what you're asking.Essentially it means that you would be tying up someone else's property with very little at risk, negotiating a price where you would be making a margin, and then listing it with an agent that would then make more money off the deal.

Have you told him you intend to tie up his property with a contract you can't execute (no money) while you hope to find a buyer that won't rip you off?

A lot of people are renters because they don't want to be tied down to having to perform maintenance on a house or to pay a long-term mortgage.2.

The eviction history information would be more useful if it were tied to specific rental history. 2.
