Having been historically, since WWII, known as a military town rife with red light districts, X-rated movie theaters, "friendly ending" massage parlors, drugs, thugs, and gang activities for decades, they are now loving and arms wide open to the TOT and relishing in the fact that they are the "Northern gateway" to San Diego and the first stop that folks can make after leaving Orange County and traveling through Camp Pendleton with no other options.What with all the traffic congestion starting miles North of Oceanside on I-5 and extending on some weekends all the way south to the city of San Diego along with the fact that it's the only coastal  North/South thoroughfare you can use to get here is starting to make Oceanside a much more desirable choice for many travelers and tourists.

Hopefully, the property is in good enough shape and your tenants are gentle enough to the property that the balance of your reserves will continue to grow.

Compared to those things, an eviction is just a gentle reminder that you should hold up your end of the agreements you enter into.

What are your recommendations on how I should gently handle this situation?

Once a week one of them will come over and clean your house, do your laundry, cook you dinner, give you a bath and a massage....

I gently told her "if you want to get this, we can afford it but just to be safe you need to work one day a month more". 

Three numbers I'd massage (and see if that sways you one way or the other).1.

Keep in mind this is with me taking care of it with kid gloves and using gentle, non-abrasive cleaners because I'm the actual owner.

Also, the MRI was unnecessary, he has mechanical back pain from lack of movement and poor posture and needs PT, chiropractic, massage and regular exercise (preferably including yoga, not high impact until he is doing better).
