Transparency is key—being honest will help you avoid unnecessary stress and ensure peace of mind.

I really am just seeking a peaceful life without screwing up what took me 10 years to build.All my properties are paid off, I did try to go the rout of hiring a property manager (two actually) and it was sooo bad.

I prefer peace of mind and a smooth workflow.

That way my money can keep working for me and I have the peace of mind that I have cash available if necessary.

BUT if you’re burned out or think it’ll continue to be a money pit, selling at a loss might be better for your peace of mind and so you can redirect your focus to flipping in your market, which you already love and have success with.As for the SFH next door, $775 rent on $65k all-in isn’t terrible if it’s a solid property that won’t need major work going forward.

Make sure any lease agreement you use complies with Arizona's landlord-tenant laws, including required disclosures (like bed bug information, for example).If you're unsure, consulting with a local real estate attorney to review the agreement can provide peace of mind and ensure you're fully protected.

With the right PM, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your property is in good hands and generating steady income.Good luck with your search!

Under IRS Publication 523 for 2023 dated February 2024, I qualify as "Service, Intelligence and Peace Corp Personnel" and for "qualified extended duty" (page 4& 5 - https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p523.pdf).

Even if you’re not getting money back on your taxes, you’ll have the peace of mind knowing your return is accurate.

Moving on was tough, but helping him make peace with that was main part of the negotiation process no one else touched on.
