Either unit 3 will have to use a Laundromat until your tenant in unit 1 leaves, or you'll have to agree on some sort of compensation for the service (not needing to share) that you're taking away.If the tenant was told when they moved in that the laundry would be shared, tell them you're glad they got to enjoy sole use of it for so long and get over it (nicely). 

I don't think it's too unrealistic in the SD market to rent a room for around 1,000 dollars given the shortage of real estate and knowing as a service member myself that the military pays out 1,900 a month for housing allowance.

because I have never used an online background check service like smart move I assumed that the process online would be virtually identical to the paper process that typical tenant would go through when renting any property.

 @Sam Tijerina first off, I want to thank you for your service to this country.  

if you ever needed, this resource was recommended by a contact of mine:nationwideeviction dut comFull disclosure: I do not work for them, provide any related services,  and I have never personally hired them.

AND you must maintain adequate reserves to take care of the disasters that may happen.I agree with all the advice you've been given in this thread, and its a very powerful group of people who have advised you here.

With in mind, if there are any contractors that are willing to do me a service for a couple of bucks, it would be highly appreciated.So the moral of the question is, is purchasing a home from a bank a PITA or is it not worth it as a first time investment?

Hello BP

Can anyone recommend and AC repairman. The unit is located in the Seminole Heights area of Tampa and most likely just needs freon.

Thanks
