@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.

Well it is doing loans for folks who bought sight unseen and trusted contractors/turnkey providers who sell the dream but in the end do the absolute min in rehab work (even though charge for a much better job) and/or sell a buyer on a class B type neighborhood that is  reality a class D neighborhood in an already low income town.

Paying off the mortgage can provide peace of mind and simplify retirement, while keeping the debt allows you to leverage your funds for higher returns through investments.

The idea is to use this property as an office space, giving me the separation I need from home while providing a place for my assistant to work where I can be more hands-on with them.The business would pay rent for the property, which would cover its expenses.

However, Opportunity Zone investments require careful structuring to ensure compliance.Evaluate your priorities: If starting a business is the main goal, proceeds from your primary residence (with the capital gains exclusion) might provide the simplest funding option.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Each note is reviewed individually and most note buyers will provide quotes once the transaction has closed, recorded, and the first payment made. 

But what it does provide is a framework.

HELOCs are generally provided to properties that are held in the owner's personal name.Are your family members not interested in refinancing the property?

Buying through an agent may provide more transparency, while sheriff sales and auctions can offer deals but often come with risks, like limited property inspection or legal complications.

That document they provided, with all the colored font, was a mess to wade through.
