All for a sign as long as the property looks occupied...leave shoes near the front door, have exterior lighting, and at least a RING camera. 

I started an automotive business on the thinnest of shoe-string budgets; way under capitalized. 

I’ve been in similar shoes before, and let me tell you, it’s no picnic.

I would probably sell in your shoes.

I don’t know your exact situation, but in your shoes I might pursue the refinance option first and then equity buyout second.

There are a lot of good meetups for real estate investors in the area that would be good to grow your network and learn from others that are and have been in your shoes as a new investor, message me and I can share on some specific monthly meetups.Also sharing some multifamily data, this is Boston proper so it has an interesting trend compared to the rest of Massachusetts.

Install cameras and exterior lighting on timers, place no trespassing signs, and place items that indicate occupancy - like a BIG dog bowl near the front door, shoes, etc. 

HI @Ananth SubramanianI have not been in your shoes but have read others that have and from what it sounds like getting the judgement is the easy part and physically collecting the $$ from the tenants is the hardest most impossible part.

When somebody asks for advice, I always try to put myself in their shoes and understand who they are and what their objectives are so I tried to do that with you with the little amount of info I could garner from your profile.

I joined this forum to connect with others, learn from those who’ve been in my shoes, and maybe even find people to partner with in the future.If you’ve got any tips, especially around raising capital or structuring your first deal, I’d love to hear them!
