I currently reside in Ohio where I buy SFR rentals and do a couple flips a year.

My primary residence is an apartment I rent in Brooklyn NY.

We care about our investors' success, but it's ultimately up to each investor to take action to accomplish their goals however they do it!

Investment Info:Single-family residence wholesale investment.

For the few years tenants have been there the interior of their unit looked well kept, so they seem to take care of it. 

Your equity is $61,400 (you also paid something to renovate but I'm not sure we need to care too much about that for this example).

. :)This is especially true if you rely on furnishedfinder.com as your primary lead source (which you shouldn't, but that's another post) as when you make that connection with a prospective resident, you are selling yourself as a landlord as much as you are the property as a place to live.

I was a southern CT resident for 15 years and own a rental property in Trumbull CT as well.

However, hauling away a truckload of items and cleaning beyond standard expectations could reasonably be charged to the tenant, as it goes beyond normal use.Goodwill Gesture: Since this tenant was great for 5.5 years—paying on time and caring for the property—you might consider waiving part of the cleaning cost as a goodwill gesture.

I think we have the option of taking out a heloc  and begin to invest elsewhere.The other idea , that I was thinking is paying off our primary residence which we owe 425k.
