I lost alot of sleep while in escrow for that first Turnkey deal just worrying, but by the 3rd I was sleeping like a baby.  

I may sleep on this.

My suspicion is that the boyfriend is staying in the master bed with my tenant, and his two kids are sleeping in the 3rd bedroom.

She may have found something else or she could be sleeping in real late.

I would also consider doing a little remodeling to really soundproof your room so that you can get a good night's sleep even with a party in the house.  

Tenant agrees to refrain from making loud noises and disturbances and tokeep down the volume of their music and broadcast programs at all times so asnot to disturb other people’s peace and quiet.SUBSTANCE ABUSE. 

Are they causing disturbances to other tenants?

Equity sitting idle might make you sleep better at night, and that is worth something, but that is still not the best use of that money, financially speaking.

It's worked for me in a suburb of Los Angeles (45 minutes to Hollywood, 1 hour to Downtown, without traffic mind you), but I "cheated" a little in that I rent out the bedroom in my 1-bed unit and sleep in the living room.I guess my message is that if you want to househack and make the numbers work cashflow-wise, you may have to look on the outskirts of the big city, whether it's Atlanta or L.A...either that or hack it in a war zone...but that will likely cost you more in the long run (bad tenants, evictions, damages, etc.).

Laura, I think a first rental property being a 24 unit complex would be baptism by fire and could be like a Navy Seals type boot camp for a landlord (3 hours of sleep and all)....
