We’ve owned the house for 20+ years and have great equity in the house, which was built in 1997.

If you don't, you lose out on a lot of income and there's a risk that Vrbo and Airbnb might drop you in their algorithms.When I built my cabins, I placed them on the right hand side of the lot so that I would have room to build a small pool house someday (about the size of a two car garage).

Absent it being mandatory I would just go through with the eviction there are far too many good tenants out there looking for quality housing to waste time on one who burnt me.  

Were you planning on house hacking your first?

House is habitable on day of close through contractors will be working there.

Should we rent the first house out or sell it?

I’m currently house hacking and mortgage is covered and then some .

Hi, I have a rental house in McKinney free and clear (without mortgage).

I bought a town house in MN in 2020 and have been renting it out for a couple of years.

You're in the right place.You have a lot on your plate and it's hard to figure out everything at the same time but you're definitely on the right track.The most achievable option to start the journey will be house-hacking.
