Love living here as well, big city but has a lot of small town touches, Theme Parkes, historic attractions, military bases, great food, and friendly residents.

Get rid of them ASAP.I'd talk to the city and ask them politely how you are to get rid of the smell from the fridge when it is filled with the tenant's food which is causing the smell. 

Not only that, but in my case, where I am a builder-owner until my license is approved, its ridiculous dealing with 'hiring' anyone to 'help' in this state so I've resolved with my trustworthy neighbor to paint it together and all i owe him is some beer and food.

The tenant wants over 13K to cover stay at a hotel (that only has a small fridge), food for the family, moving costs and storage costs which is about 2x the amount the city expects.

Whether you are starting an online service or buy a food truck, endless possibilities..

Just food for thought

I would guess if you do have 500k in equity you could probably outproduce the cashflow in most markets oustide of CA, and could possibly diversify into more than 1 property.Just some food for thought.

One thing to note, 1 of their pictures is literally just the indentation in the carpet from where a trash can, water bowl, and food bowl always sat.

All you need to know is where motivated sellers will be WHEN they become motivated.Where would you go to get food if you were a hungry lion in the savannas of Africa?

Food for thought.
