If you care at all about your future in investing, you need to ask the tenant to rehome them or for her to move.

It does however give you a degree of independence to choose what you want to do.As your portfolio grows you'll also feel the weight of future capex responsibility more, which ironically points you to growing more cash flow through more real estate.The other issue is that you are chasing a moving goalpost.

Walking score of 95.Pre COVID rental numbers:Monthly gross rent $15,250Cap rate 7.1%Future rental numbers:Estimated Monthly gross rent after current tenants move out $13,950Cap rate 6.5%Because monthly rent looks to be about 20-30% more if you rent by the month, I am considering renting out my duplex for monthly rentals on Airbnb/other sites and potentially for travel nurses (ideal because several hospitals are walking distance to my house).

Many laundromats take card payments these days, which is very helpful in verifying revenue.Look at the lease terms – long-term leases with reasonable rent increases are important for keeping costs predictable, and can also be important for securing financing.Also, check out the equipment and figure out what repairs or upgrades might be needed in the near future.

It establishes a base that's $40 lower, which all future rent increases are based on. 

How do you factor that unknown future expense into the ROI?  

I would love to make a move before the end of the year and so I keep trying to decide which of the following is best for me:1) Buy 1 more expensive CA property near here, and thus a better tenant (less likely to cause issues), but lose a little bit of money every month due to the current numbers, while hoping for future appreciation? 

@Dyanne Christensen I did reach out to Compliance, Investor Relations, and our COO ref your process yesterday and I feel you will see some type of resolution in near future..I know that doesn't give you much information but Compliance (sorry I don't like mentioning names) stated she has been responding to you and working with Inner Circle lead and the Co-Founder. ya you got thrown into a no win situation best of luck on your new pursuits. 

They don't care when you try to explain all the future projects, they actually hate hearing that since it sounds like a scam, when an investor says, "Give me a good price and I will have a lot of work for you" it sends chills up their spines. 

It's not fair for his future landlords not to know about this terrible tenant.
