If it does happen with guest there, just get someone out to deal with it asap and move forward.

You may want to move on it sooner rather than later.

Possibly staying in a place for a year, possibly in a smaller unit and moving on and renting it out.

I guess there has also been talk of moving some government entities out of Washington, like the FBI.How does all that factor into your analysis?   

@Jeff M. would love to hear what made you change direction and move away from investing in Lorain.

Currently just waiting it out and hoping for the best to start the year so I can move on and dive into better opportunities. 

I’m starting off wanting to get into a primary residence that I plan to house hack and then figure out the next move into investment properties but that’s down the roadwith all that said, are there other ways that im not thinking of to 1.

Check with your QI about both scenarios.I did have a client do a 1031, rent it out for two years and then moved in at the advisement of their CPA.  

.- The townhouse you're moving into is currently a rental, but you plan to live there two years for the 121 exclusion.

@Michael Klick Congrats on getting things moving in your investing journey.
