Would love to hear your process!

Quote from @Esther Iroko: Yes, you should start the eviction process.

There are plenty of deals in Philly on and off-market from wholesalers, who are pretty decent in Philly compared to other places.You will need to get your GC license here and learn the permitting process and necessity here as well.

We started the eviction process.

It's only dead if you are spending too much on your purchase.  

If they are not paying rent then go through the eviction process as normal.

PM's will have plenty of contractors to help streamline the process for you and limit your liability when dealing with contractors. 

I contacted Buildium and they confirmed they do not offer credit card tracking, but offered a workaround which was to set up a credit card as a bank account, and when there is a balance it's just always negative in the bank account, and this would allow you to track individual purchases like it was a checking account.  

It seems like a win-win, especially with the simplified approval process and flexibility for multi-generational housing.

Since I will be managing it after purchase, you can be certain I'm not going to sell you a bad investment.
