Plus a free vacation to Hawaii every 3 years in bonus points is a huge bonus. 

Not bad... weekend vacation money.But here are some of the things that can disrupt that. 

They also inform me that the Water District is planning to force me to vacate, and remove my sewer line off their property.

We cater to us older folk that didn't grow up with all these subscriptions and when they go on vacation they want to press a button and tell the remote what channel they want😄 We have big smart TV's that they love and if inclined can use a subscription, but then they have to figure out how to sign out of them.

HI Vince, as long as you are vacating your current primary home and moving into a new primary that is acceptable, but just make sure you obtain a 12 month lease in order to use the rental income to offset your mortgage payment and not getting hit twice for your current mortgage and new mortgage.

From what I’m seeing, people are still traveling and making plans, especially for vacation rentals in desirable areas.

Make vacating the unit a condition to close in your offer.

You can also use the income snowball to pay for other things such as vacations, debt, home renovations, you name it.

If you are considering a property in a location you vacation to, you could also look at doing a second home loan.

Or because they don't want to be the bad guy.With closing on Dec 4th the issue is that your 28 day notice will be effective Dec 31st and your tenant has until Jan 31st to vacate.
