That can be tough when it's a one-off job or you only have one rental.

Joshua Tree is a bit of a tough market as there are a lot of STRs in the area.Be prepared that your first year might be a little thin as you are new and need to build up some reviews to get rolling.The interior is a bit of a toss up.

Tough issue but it's unreasonable require tenants not hang things on the wall. 

Unless you have a very large sphere to start it will be really tough to get going on your own.

Start the eviction process.

Process is simple. 1. purchase contract2. send contract to title company3. bring cash to closing and you're done

Quote from @Shaun Ortiz: @Dominic MazzarellaThanks for sharing your process, Dominic!

I would like to expand a bit and put some systems and processes in place and generally get a little more serious when it comes to the management side.In Brandon Turner's Book- The Book on Managing Rental Properties, in chapter 3 he talks about creating a company policy binder.

 I am in search of a spreadsheet to determine the profitability of flipping a house before making an offer to an HML I am new to this process and would appreciate any advice.

I’ve heard a lot about BRRRR, fix-and-flip, and rental properties, but I’m curious about what’s working for you all right now.I know from talking to people that some have gotten into bad deals while using their own money, and I’m worried that using bank funding and ending up in a bad deal could make things even worse—not just for the investment but for the relationship with the bank as well.I’m just trying to make sure my clients use this funding in the right way, without getting themselves into a tough spot.
