That being said I know these contracts can be very strict regarding the length of occupancy, but IIRC there was a BP podcast a while back (~ 2 years maybe) where someone said they got a contract for 6 months.

Make sure you are following the proper procedures that are outlined by state law and make sure you aren't violating their current lease.

@Alex Olson thanks for the follow up.

Remind her to follow up with the police about the incident and check with the department to see if your tenet can get on a patrol list.

Just wanted to follow as I'm always thinking about my next step.

But as landlords, we DO have to hold tenants accountable and follow through with evictions and judgments.

So I am on my phone and that whole "mention" thing doesn't work so hopefully you are following this topic.Anyway, it's time to get her attorney involved.

Sophisticated CRM and follow up systems.3. 2 to 3 or more closers ( real people that the second the lead came in they were pounding on the door) now you will have others on BP who qualify folks on the phone and only work the with most motivated.. and I suppose that works were you have little competition or your competition for inventory is not keen.. these folks were in bigger MSAs.4.

A few quick data points for you:1) In order to do a VA IRRRL (which is still a VA loan), you must have a minimum of 210 days from the date of the first payment on the first VA loan to the new note date (i.e. closing date of the IRRRL).2) A minimum of 6 months consecutive payments must be made on the original VA loan.I'd first look to see if you have any VA entitlement left following the 4-plex purchase... if not, perhaps consider a refinance to an FHA loan while it's still your primary residence (loan amount can be up to 97.75% of the value of the property if it's a rate/term refinance) in order to reuse your VA entitlement for another purchase down the road.

However, on your primary home it will be more strict as there are a lot more federal compliance rules involved.
