I would stop screwing around and let an eviction attorney or a skilled paralegal handle the eviction.

@Neems Yamin Unless you are doing and handling all the legal docs yourself(Which is not smart) I wouldn't worry about it.

MS don't fool around.. they picked him up on Friday night ( you know on purpose) so he had to sit in the cooler until Monday when the judge got in to set bail.But every state is different on how they handle this stuff.in the list I gave you I have funded wholesalers and flippers in all those cities Save NY ... every other one I have funded in... along with half a dozen more cities not mentioned that are too tough to wholesale in in the first place like CA..wholesaling is a very very tough gig.. and not a starter strategy.. the guys I know that are successful have big business's with huge budgets to make this work.. its not a hey I have no money I am going to wholesale and get money to buy and hold.. can that work . sure a blind squirrel finds an acorn.. but to really make any money at it .. its a full blown business.. with all the things you need in a mature business enterprise.. staff  capital... experience and UBER sales skills.

My wife is on the board of one of the HOAs, but both HOAs are using the same property management company to handle the accounting and day to day property management issues.The question for this post is, can some recommend a property management company that will handle a small number of units - either 14 or 7, and work with an HOA and is in Oakland.Here's the background -- the current property management company apparently only manages much larger complexes -- 100 units and up -- and so is not doing a good job with this small fish of a property.

You could refinance the property and pull out cash, while pushing it to a 30 year term to reduce your payment.

i hear a lot about the transfer of money from a sale but not how to handle moneys from refinance and i am not sure if it is the same in the end. i would say also that this is assuming this all takes place in less than one year?
