In a pricier area, or if you’re banking on a perfect scenario, that cheap credit can suddenly get very expensive.I’m curious... if you went down this route, what kind of safety nets or alternative strategies would you have in place in case that perfect timeline doesn’t pan out?

ALSO, I have not had to do an eviction following a partial payment agreement (so I don't know exactly how that would pan out in our courts), all of my tenants have so far completed their payment agreements as signed.Multifamily Northwest has forms for these types of things available via the Rental Forms Center at https://rentalformscenter.com/ Their forms are typically well reviewed by local attorneys; as you'll note, on the Partial Rent Payment Receipt there is verbiage specifically about if the landlord has/has not served a termination notice and reserving the landlords right to eviction if the agreement is not completed. 

After a couple of years of treading the path to frugality to build this financial runway, I've networked with the greatest people who made this all happen, of course, it took the strength, determination, time, etc to place myself where I am today but, without the mentorship of my two great mentors whom I wish used BiggerPockets so I can mention, I don't believe I would have made it thus far relying on some whimsical dream that this will all pan out accordingly, thank you for everything Greg and Lashawn.In addition, I would like to thank Bigger Pockets for connecting me with the greatest realtor @Stephen Schmitt Who took my dreams and aspirations to the core when we first connected and spoke about my future goals to replace my W2 job for financial freedom. within three months of me deciding to pull the trigger and get pre-approved, we found this killer cash-cow that apprised over purchase price!!! 

I’m not confident this approach fits the best with how my life is panning out though but I’m open to learning more.  

.✅ Secondly, good cause has a max cap on yearly rental increases at a certain margin above CPI or 10%, whichever is less.For those of you who own stabilized, high quality housing like we do, this shouldn’t be a problem.But instead of keeping rents flat because you are a nice person or increasing just a little bit, you could get yourself in trouble when it comes to funding future major repairs and capital expenditures.As long as you are increasing to what the market will bear, you will be in good shape.Also if you are looking at purchasing blighted, dilapidated housing with the intent of raising rents and financing improvements to the property, you will have to take this into consideration and buy accordingly and on in place rents not projected rents.On the implementation side, however that pans out, you might be able to get these necessary rent increases to finance repairs but you may need to go to housing court in order to get the green light but we are just not sure at this point and remains to be seen.✅ Thirdly, in regard to objectionable tenancy and nuisance caused by disruptive tenants, you will need to document these violations with undeniable evidence.Because police reports are not usually able to be procured due to disturbances like drug trafficking or domestic violence, you’ll need to take matters into your own hands on producing that documentation.I recommend getting security cameras installed in all common areas and outside your properties.I’ve used SimpliSafe security cameras but you’ll need to install WiFi service at your properties so that you can maintain recordings in the event of violations and add to your lease that any tampering with said cameras constitutes a lease violation as well.This is still developing and once we get further clarity, we will host a round table with legal experts on how to best protect our properties and residents.

Other sources may get you leads but more don't pan out in my experience.

Obviously, that never panned out so I have second best.  

Sometimes, ok frequently with vacant lots, plans don't always pan out.

I grew up in WNC and still have family there so that is an option and even have placed offers on cabins in WNC to make an STR but nothing has panned out yet for something like that.
