After all, if a judge ordered the eviction in the first place, there must have been a good reason and who am I to second guess it with only half the story being told to me (in the most favorable light I'm sure). 

Do yourself a favor and if you think it's a good property and the returns are good, don't worry about it.

That could also work in your favor as well if you know what the rents are and you could negotiate the terms more in your favor. 

I am just telling you that I hate formal partnership, and would favor taking individual properties in a trust and spliting the benificial interest. 

@Brian C I appreciate the advice it does sound like I could make this deal work in my favor.

If everything is done right, do you think it's favorable to own a home vs. note investing?

If "this person" is you, start by accepting that you may have made some less than favorable financial decisions in your life to get to this point and now you must deal with those ramifications to move on.

The law is very favorable for VA loan qualifiers, to the point that you can get your earnest money back if you get restationed.

about every 2 years I look to sell my house and upgrade (if the market is in my favor) well..

If the court then rules in the landlord's favor, the landlord may collect up to three months' rent or three times the actual damages, whichever is greater (KRS 383.695).Note: Any time the Act requires that notice be given either to the landlord or tenant, the notice should be in writing and a record of all correspondence should be kept.
