@Tom OchiengI would reach out to a real estate attorney for specific advice on this situation since you already have one tenant who is being difficult.On a side note, when I have inherited tenants, I have been most successful when I have provided longer non-renewal notices, like 60-90 days, and offered to assist with moving costs.

This is smart, and it's part of RWs success as a franchise.  

@Jordan Meltzer congrats on the mid term biz and your success. 

Also, for those whose BUSINESS (as opposed to just investment) is STR, they can scale successfully while their experience and knowledge of the industry may allow them the opportunity to uncover and recognize those few opportunities that will provide a much higher than market risk adjusted ROI. 

Taxes, costs, eviction complexity, etc are going to be a much bigger factor in your success than anything else.

I found it researching online after many months.

I own a LTR in central Houston that I think would be pretty successful as an STR based on the AirDNA data.
