I live in Manchester NH as well. 

Apartment buildings, assisted living facilities, self storage, restaurants... 

Is this a LT residential interest or more like a shared sober house living situation?

It is live and able to be edited or changed anytime.

Lived in The Woodlands for almost 19 years now and been investing up in this area for the last 9.

With that being said, do yourself a favor and do the research yourself on zoning, valuation and ACTUAL rent before talking to STR specialists who make a living on selling these =) Just my 2 cents...

I informed them that their contract states they are expected to pay up until the end of the agreement regardless of living their or not. 

Live in one and rent the other units out!

well if I ever make it to the Smokies to see what the draw is  I will rent a condo then :)  I am just guess but I suspect folks that go there want to be in the woods and hear the birds and maybe some local mtn views etc.. or some sort of privacy they never get at home out east were there is not very much public lands close to where they live in the big city. ????

If the eviction goes to court, then there is a record of that eviction on their file and it will make it harder for them to find another place to live (assuming the landlord does a background check).Not renewing the lease happens when either party decides they simply don't want to renew the lease.
