I Have a great tenant that has occupied the property for nine years which is two years before I even purchased the property, she always pays the rent on time, and the repairs I've had to do to the apartment have been minimal, but she has a roommate that she is no longer getting along with and she would like to move her boyfriend into the apartment, but her roommate doesn't want to vacate voluntarily.

But think of it this way -- what tenant will voluntarily agree to a rent increase when they don't have to?

He had been having pot shipped from the West Coast in PODs that were delivered to abandoned houses, and was using the POD to stash the weed and was dealing out of the rental property.

Maybe ask to voluntarily put a lien or cloud the title until you get paid?

Which means: I'm considering buying our current vacation rental from the other 2 families and owning it myself, assuming the numbers work (I need to do some additional analysis, as we used a HELOC from my parents and made interest-only payments for the mortgage; the remainder of the cash to furnish and make repairs came from $$ we each threw into the pot at the beginning).

I personally would NEVER voluntarily allow a tenant to have their lease come due in the winter.

This way, the rent's too high for them to stay so that they have to voluntarily leave without you having to bribe them with any money to move out.

i would love to listen to your stories. i Currently do not want to put any money down a master lease, but i must figure out a was to satisfy both parties at the same time... no one is going to hand over a pot of gold for free..

Try to get something in writing from her that says she is voluntarily releasing possession and returning possession to you, with any pre-paid rents remaining with the landlord as consideration for early lease termination.

Scenery-wise and outdoor opportunities-wise, these are amazing areas for a vacation, and probably vacation rentals, once the majority of the pot trade fades.
