Unfortunately, my guest policy only states "more than 5 consecutive nights" - another thing I need to change if I rent again.I'm also thinking I should draft another notice for the back door, or maybe just file the eviction now, before more damage is done.

Usually lenders will look at the past 2-3 years of real estate activity and a schedule of addresses you closed on to confirm that experience.One way to secure better terms is to partner up with an investor who has recent experience.
