Quote from @Diran Deukmajian: State laws vary, so you should talk to the Sheriff's Department and see what to expect.In most states, the Sheriff will show up and expect the person to be out.

Like you said, a real estate attorney would be a valuable person to talk to, but here's what I have: Considerations: short/long-term rentals, co-ownershipTo keep your favorable mortgage rate, you can consider a Joint Tenancy or Tenancy in Common agreement without refinancing.

Hey everyone,My parents have recently told me that their house is too big for them (4 bedrooms) and they would like to downsize to a condo/townhome.  They don't want to sell their home, however, but would rather keep ...

I have a few partners, but went over budget and personally funded the remaining construction costs.  

I understand if this person is renting the whole apartment unit, but how does the ESA works out in shared housing?

Hi Jared,For my furnished properties, I personally use Airbnb (and set to 30+ days for minimum rental period) and Zillow.

Once I got beyond 5 properties I personally stopped budgeting for capex.

If the rent of that 2 bedroom was $1600, that person would expect to pay $800 rent and maybe another $250 for electric, water, heat, internet for a total of $1050 all included.

So, I would find a handyman or something who could do that or maybe first just have the cleaning person try a product by hand meant to remove scratches which I think does the same thing but with manual scrubbing.

Make sure the zoning change proposal makes sense beyond your personal interest.
