Overland Park, KS vs Kansas City, MO) Very landlord friendly, worst case eviction is usually 8 weeks + $500 + lost rent (cannot comment on individual cases and this is not legal advice) Large diverse metro area - variety of jobs, companies, people can have a career in KC.

Not exactly sure about the legal details, but initial overview of the system seems to suggest this kills quite a few birds with one stone.  

Myself I think if one wants to get into real estate in CA you get into the bizz you get licensed so you can legally collect fee's you put in the hard work like most wholesalers have to now..

I'd have them sign my own lease on renewal and I'd make sure I had enough information on them so I can go after them if a legal issue arises such as employer and other similar data. 

Then in 6 months refinance into a conventional loan and you can exit the property legally. 

Keeping your license and avoiding any legal issues is probably worth more than this one transaction.

You may need to seek legal counsel on this.2) Get all the info about your rental property as possible: leases, rent ledgers, tenant contact info, etc.3) Start looking for a new PMC4) Execute your termination notice5) Once transfer is complete, circle back to decide if worth suing them.

We give the tenant one chance to communicate about things like messy yards or parking on the grass.

Clear communication and legal safeguards are essential for a successful partnership.

but working with someone who is local to your market, who can show you their legal documents that they have used, introduce you to a proper title/attorney office for drafting documents...I mean, nothing is foolproof...but that route will have a significantly higher success rate.
