As I know that these things play out differently depending on locality, the closer you are to my jurisdiction the better: Yardley, PA 190672)  If you give tenant notice to vacate after the lease naturally ends, and they refuse to vacate, do you use an eviction to get them out or is this a separate legal action? 

Congrats Yvette, way to take action. 

First off, until you take an action like sell or refi its just an estimate of value.

Then, take action.

Just make sure to consume contents here as much as possible and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

My wife and I are new to taking action with REI, I've been learning for about 8 months now but want to take quantifiable action.

Helical piles, and leaving me convinced by their expertise and inclined to take action on their bid.I didn't ultimately sign off, as I had not budgeted for that much into foundation work, and have since been able to do most of the foundation slab crack demo & repair myself with some local sub-contractor help.The helical piles approach tho: drive a stake down until it hits bedrock and then neumatically "pump up" the foundation until its back to level...seems like the ultimate right approach & solution I need, before I proceed to a future phase of finishing the attic, bumping out shed dormers, and adding +1000sqft w/ +1bdrm, +1ba, & +1 wetbar/kitchennette for an STR unit.That project phase is a few mos out, and will require a structural engineer, as I'll be adding interior structure posts, a major new ridge beam, and 20' of floor-to-ceiling full-light windows & french doors facing the bay. 

They were all very helpful tips and definitely going to put one of these in action and see what works out best.

Be willing to take action without knowing every step of the process before you get started.

Managing one unit is not going to be that time-consuming, no need to give away money to a PM.
