@Oraude Boston as a wholesaler, honestly getting a lien lowered shouldn't be your concern.

The tenant said she went outside and talked to her calmly to have the children come get her and that she would address any concerns and discipling at the time.

In my one rental that had concern about the possibility of asbestos tile (judged purely on the likely age of the tile) we just put new flooring over the top of it.

However, that's what many divorced people said before their spouse tried to take them to the cleaners.You will  also need to consider the events of death or permanent disability of one or more of the owners/partners.

We also ended up removing the underlayment from the other 2 bedrooms with the old clay carpet pads, as we were concerned about odor in there as well.

They really add up fast.I am subscribing to this topic because I have a rental (on a permanent foundation) which has been moved more a second time.

Thats what I was thinking I would do, but I was a little concerned that my agent didn't have any advice on this situation.

Allow them to move-out permanently, break the lease without penalty, if they would like to.Unfortunately, unforeseen events happen.

I don't think this is a totally unfounded concern - sure, technically, the PM is responsible for refunding the deposit, but if he/she is gone, then it's likely the landlord who will be tapped for the cash. 

So, in order to get into RE investment and grow what I have now, to be able to retire between the next 5-10 years, I'll appreciate your guidance.Here are my questions/concerns, considering I am 61:If I take out X-amount from my IRA, I'll get taxed and lose a big chunk of the money.
