Hey @Charles Evans, I would make sure to reference their lease and the new owners.

I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.

experience: I’m on my 3rd flipage: early 40sday job: brand and web design/development retirement savings: noneI want to learn about buy and hold to secure having SOMETHING for retirement!

Being a brand new unit you have rehabbed you might have to get her out rather than potentially ruin the whole unit by an act of her negligence.

You are complaining after four months of trying in a brand new business that you didn't know anything about?

In Phoenix, a 1996 build is practically brand new when compared to a WWI-era home in Cleveland or Pittsburgh or some other Midwest or East coast city.While I agree that older homes come with more problems, buying something newer may not work as the price will be higher and won't cash flow as well.I'm of the mindset to buy what fits your budget and investment goals.

I am not in your area, but wish you the best of luck on this new journey!

A minority of 401k providers will let you transfer the loan to a new provider, but I have yet to experience that option with any 401k I have had.
