If the lease was going to end you can not renew it but you can't kick someone out because you want to sell them vacant.

I’m very skilled at flooring and tile from my construction work I did in high school.  

I told them NO and they agree to terminate the lease early and move out by the end of the month.

If you end up being the same way, your ten years may end up looking more like fifteen -- it might just be a better deal.

Those who are most successful buying SFH's buy in markets that experience a sudden  appreciation event/spike in home ownership  creating an end buyer market that no longer consists primarily of investors.

We advised her that her son also needed to apply and she replied that her son was not going to live with her and was out of town through the end of the year.

So like the majority of investors right now, it has hard for me to find cash flowing rentals due to appreciation + high interest rates.
