One time, I sent a letter to an heir in Austin, and thier family ended up selling me a property they couldn’t maintain.

@Matthew Morrow I had a house it was a drug ring and couldn't evict for 6 months.

Just be mindful to keep relationships with your tenants strong.I’m curious... if you had to pick just one route right now..sell, refinance, or optimize..where do you think you’d lean, and why?

You could sell those three properties and 1031 into a larger apartment building in the Midwest in much better shape and with management most likely without the same number trouble you are facing.

For example, in Hawaii, McDonalds sells poi and spam.

The California method is you buy High and you sell HIGHER.  

People are selling their homes in the northeast/midwest and moving here.

Moving out of a state with income tax to a state without before selling, saving 10% or more in taxes. 

Imagine someone harassing your girlfriend, damaging your property, using or selling illicit drugs, dog biting you or your other tenants and creating a flea or noise issue, or any number of other potential issues.

Sell vs.
