You can even share with them moving forward if they would like to market any properties under your portfolio you would like to be contacted first just to make sure there is an understanding and agreement on both sides.Then you can close with I contacted you directly because I wanted to be fair and upfront with you but if this continues you will give me no choice but to have to contact the proper people to cease this action.

I would call a local bankruptcy lawyer and double check, but I was told by my lawyer that if I had won possession before they filed bankruptcy then I could've continued with the eviction process.

I quit my w-2 job  (in 2004) to "try" investing full time while my husband continued working and paying our bills.

I have been working for the past few months and will continue to work as I understand my paycheck is the only source of income and only asset I have going for me.

I continue to look, make offers, and occasionally close on So Cal RE. 

This way, while living for free, you can continue to build equity and save for your next investment.Good luck!

@Rafiq Islam Although the rental market is rather strong right now in Richmond as housing purchase prices continue to rise (like most of the country), you should include a vacancy rate into the equation in case of an eviction.

Bad leverage is using existing equity to buy toys like cars and boats or continuing to buy investments that negative cash flow. 

My passion/hobbies in life are spending time with my friends and family, Racing and riding motorcycles, and continuous learning and self improvement.

What can I do in the meantime to feel like I'm continuing to progress?
