Would anyone be kind enough to spare me a little time with regards to answering my questions?

I also rent the spare rooms out upstairs, I have a tenant now claiming I have to give the notice to enter the common space, the kitchen, living room area of the upstairs area could this be true?

I am living well from going paycheck to paycheck with a few extra dollars to spare, but I want to live the life I see myself having.

Or you could still rent out your spare room in your unit to maximize the return.

Hi Jacob,It's probably not reasonable wear and tear, but it looks like a typical accident with this type of flooring.In many instances just the problem tiles can be cut out and replacements re-glued down.A good maintenance tech (with the proper type of floor in place already) should be able to fix this quickly.An owner doing it:a) Might not care much and disregard it.b) Freak out and want to charge you for a whole new floor replacement, not understanding tiles (in most instances) can be changed out if broken.c) call a fix up handyman who will charge time and materials (however long he takes to fix it using his own favorite method of fixing).and if it's a property managed either a), or c) but add to c) a (possibly) charge for the mangers time handling it too.The Click Lock type of flooring may take more time and effort (cost) to fix than the Tape or Glue Down.If the place is the Taj Mahal it will probably be more noticeable than if the place is more down on it's heels.And fixing means being able to get a matching piece (typically from extra ordered when it was installed, to use for just this purpose).If you are renting in a big professionally manged complex it's likely they will have spare tiles in storage for this use, and be VERY much used to replacing them.Here is one of the easier (quicker) types to fix.https://www.youtube.com/watch?

(removal of extra occupant by x date and turn in spare key).

Get yourself back on track and then save every dime you can spare to build up a reserve that remains untouched except in an absolute emergency.

I found the below books super helpful so I strongly recommend them:- The Millionaire Next Door- The book on Rental Property Investing- The Book on Investing in Real Estate with No Money Down- Long-Distance Real Estate Investing- The Millionaire Real Estate Investor- What Every Real Estate Investor Needs to Know About Cashflow- How I Turned $1,000 into a Million in Real Estate in My Spare Time- Rich Dad Poor Dad- The Book on Estimating Rehab CostsIn terms of your budget - is this something you already have in cash?

Thankfully the home needed minimal plumbing and electric work needed so we were spared bringing anything else to code. 

Today, I am living for free by renting out the other unit, along with the spare room in my unit.
