Continuing with the eviction process, even if the tenant decides to leave, ensures they don't repeat their behavior with other landlords.I'd love to hear from fellow investors about your experiences with difficult tenants.

I am the sole owner of our house.

All my houses currently have good tenants that pay on time.

If it's low-income housing, it typically involves higher risk, but if you have good, trustworthy tenants, the hassle of changing locks might not be worthwhile.

Currently house hacking.

I am leaving more equity in my deals on purpose

People even rent out basement apartments in their own house.

Plus every time the house sells you start that amortization schedule over and you're on the "winning" side of the payments from the new owner so to speak.Obviously this only works when you've got low payments yourself or you manage to increase the value of the home significantly, but is there anything else I should be looking out for here? 

People like this generally want to rent until they want to leave, which might just be week to week, and don't want any paper trail.
