since my goal is to be able to cut down my hours for quality of life purposes.

I think that many investors who have bought property in the last few years are equity rich and cash poor.

In both notices, they alleged that they served you with the respective document at (the address you provided the court in the Summons.)While the Clerk clearly accepted these documents, I see no record of any proof of service/certificate of mailing entered into the case for them.The only other thing - the last item - I see is, another week later, DEFENDANT’S EMERGENCY MOTION TO VACATE THE FINAL JUDGMENT AND WRIT OF POSSESSION, which, to me, reads like a poor attempt to show their client that they did something (from what I can tell, the allegation that the tenant vacated a week before you obtained the final judgement should be the grounds to justify vacating the judgment now.)The Court said nothing to either of these 3 filings by the law firm - according to the public records I see.Seems like the horse was out of the barn when that LLC (the law firm) entered the case, but, again, I am not a lawyer.

My market is not cash flow based, but my STR cash flow is poor this year.  

For next moves - try to pick quality or high value appartments that attracts more well-off tenants. 

I typically see that the tri and quad options were converted very long ago and very poorly done and pretty much all of them are full gut rehabs. 

I first got interested in real estate investing from reading Rich Dad Poor Dad. 

They want quality information when they search for it.
