It sounds like you put yourself in a tough situation by doing a full gut renovation without pulling permits.

@Rebecca MillerHi Rebecca, always a little tough to tell.

The tenant that is going to vacate, it would be nice if they get out before, I know that is not the agreement but the person could get a little tough to get out if they want to be tough. 

But these are cash outs...HELOCs in Texas can be tough... why a HELOC over a cash out?  

I have no proof or evidence that she has no money, no assets, no nothing since the eviction moratorium doesn't require a tenant to prove anything.

There are things that you learn by having your hands in the game, and if you can leverage those learnings you're more likely to have a favorable initial outcomeRemote management is tough.

That said, the multi-family market is a tough one in CT as well.

@Moly YangIt's tough to know too much without knowing numbers, but I do know the small town I work in (7,000 people) is nearly impossible to get a rental in.  

As you are inheriting this might be difficult to prove they are responsible. 

I went from living my life with my wife and kids to this building, an LLC, and a tough time.
