This would let you guys live in Florida like you want and force appreciation to set yourself up for a great rental when you move out.

If you're going to buy for break-even cash flow, you at least need to buy with some equity or force the equity so that you're not buying a lose-lose.If you like NC, look at Triad - Greensboro, Winston, High Point - or Alamance - Burlington, Mebane, Graham.

Many other upgrades done to force appreciate.

Recommend keeping your W2 job for as long as possible while building your PMC business.Typically, one needs 75-125 properties under management to actually make a living.This approach will also force you to automate your PMC business and maybe even hire a Remote Worker or two as you're able to afford. 

I manage 400 rentals and have never paid a tenant to leave.You ask them to leave.You tell them to leave.You force them to leave through the courts.It appears you don't have the knowledge or experience to pull these off, so I recommend you talk to the tenant and see what it will take to get them to leave.

For the price of $5 I wouldn't think this is worth setting up, but if you just had it as an exclusive discount, nobody will be mad about it if they're not forced to purchase anything. 

The tenant is mentally unstable, didn't pay rent over a year, got evicted, forced out by the Sheriff and kept coming back to the property by breaking locks and lock picking.

First for our experience we have 1000 class B& c units w another 440 under contract.i think Covid forced a slight correction in the b and C market since it was getting too tight and now owners see their exposure.

But I may be forced to discontinue my relationship with ISpeedtolead.com if resolution isn't found in a reasonable timeframe.
