Hello everyone,Have a long-term tenant who recently exited.

Being out of state, I would suggest vetting your "team", meaning find an investor realtor, lender/s (hard $ / long term), property manager, contractors, etc.

If they pay then no need to take next steps but if they don’t then at least you’ve started the (sometimes long) process and are ready to move on to the next step (eviction).

If you have an issue with that, or are long distance, hiring a property manager is a must.

My last rehab was projecting far better than a 2 to 1 return which was fortunate because we went way over budget (my worst over budget by far ever).

The only inssue is that i have not found many people in the area that have done it and would like to ask if any one here has done ADU's in Orange County or Long Beach and has it been worth it for you . 

I am considering in investing in Single-Family/Multi-Family mid-term and long-term rentals.

We made the decision to rent and prepare our house for long-term rental.

Here’s my recommendation to get it under control: For a quick fix, start by sealing up any gaps using acoustic caulk around outlets, baseboards, or other small openings.

You can tell the tenant that they can ignore the notice as long as they follow through on paying.As the landlord you want to maintain control of the situation - not allow the tenant to do so.
