You are way ahead of the game.

The year before informing me of this divorce he had begun to secretly take out several loans on our joint banking accounts and against 2 of the 3 paid off vehicles then didnt pay them.

Long-term rentals continue to be one of the best wealth creation vehicles available to the average American. 

Sounds like you have some awesome things ahead of you. 

I hate when I see investors blame the agent or list something as a bad investment / misrepresentation when the investor is the one who should have researched all of that ahead of time. 

I personally believe it's smart to get ahead of the curve of this trend before ADU's become more of the norm in AZ.

If your return on equity is lower than the return on investment you could get by redeploying that equity into other properties or other investment vehicles then it is probably time to sell.

@John Morris it's great that you are thinking ahead and planning how to scale now. 

Get ahead of your competitors price drops and adjust weekly until rented.

As Fed keep at things, it will keep increasing the returns on other investment vehicles.
