Oregon has 180 day right to redemption (google it if you aren't familiar with the term.)It sounds as if you are toying with a bunch of different ideas of how to proceed.  

I worked at a U-Haul when I was younger and we found someone sleeping in one of the storage units.  

You can be hospitable, and in it for the long haul, but if you buy a bad deal (or lease in case of arbitrage) and it doesnt rent well to start with, did you run your numbers enough so that you dont lose everything.

In that case, I have to live with it for the long haul.

You could rent out the whole house with an addendum allowing you personal use of the in-law x times a year for up to y weeks “while you are abroad” if you want to dot and cross is and ts 

Then craigslist the wood for free haul off.Just my 2 cents.search tree on the forums for more advice!

Are you in it for the long haul?

If so, you can file for an overstay eviction right now.If the U-haul is in the driveway, it would probably be cheapest to wait them out.

Risk = Reward and generally they never bring in the cash flow that is touted over the long haul might be good until the first annual inspection by hud.. or hud tenant moves on etc etc.The people I see succeed at these price points are usually locals who run these for a living not investors looking for passive income.. so depends on what kind of investors the OP is

@Jason DoussanI'm actually out driving a semi hauling wheat for a neighbor today.
