This time around, I am looking for other possible ways to facilitate the vacancy of the previous owners.

I'd love to connect in a few months' time (or before if preferred) to possibly locate a property in your area and start my REI journey around October this year.

They aren't going to magically improve and start abiding by the lease terms but I think there is definitely a possibility that the situation gets worse.I think that's a good point.

I am at an inflection point where I need to decide if I should try to sell or rent it due to possibly moving for a job change. 

It may be possible to get away with 15% down instead of 20% depending on the scenario. 

It's also quite possible to buy REAL leather furniture that will last for a decade on FB Marketplace, much of it rarely used. 

@Matt Powers there are endless possibilities and combinations of how you could approach this opportunity.

Meanwhile, gross rents of $1,800+ for 3-bedroom single-families is an achievable figure, so it’s possible to generate cash flow if you lever modestly.There’s a bunch of other stuff that’s worth highlighting—the economy, demographics, neighborhoods, new construction, and more.

It's possible he carries it out, but I believe it unlikely.

I personally wouldnt - I am sure you could use the equity to get more than $600/month in cash flow however that would possibly require some work and risk on yalls end.
