Hey Brian,I am a real estate agent that solely deals with off-market properties in Chattanooga.

I sold my real estate and company in Japan and came back to the US in 2019.

But blaming this on toilet paper in childish, and getting real old.

Both have real estate experience.

When switching over insurance,do I provide the lender with a STR/Landlord policy or do I purchase regular home insurance to send to lender and STR/ Landlord policy for my protection.

Hi @Ellen Feiss I agree with @Ty Coutts that you should start with informal, friendly, face-to-face conversations with the tenants to establish rapport, especially as you have some lead time here before next April.People don't like surprises or having to scramble, so if you are able to let them know your plans in advance, if they are reasonable people they should appreciate the extra lead time.This is especially true if their rents are currently very under market - they will have sticker shock when they look at what other units are renting for, and have to spend more time finding a new unit (if you'll be asking them to leave).If you have to move into one of the units yourself, I'm surprised you (or your lender) didn't make it a condition of the purchase and make the seller have the unit vacant for you.Sooner or later in rental real estate, you will have to establish a relationship with an eviction attorney.

@Phillip DakhnovetsI agree with what @Greg Scott says about how focus on cash flows can lead to purchase in problematic areas.

Is it any harder now to find a deal or is it the same as always, just a different group that learned that real estate actually does require work?

Process of selling primary residence, but instead of investing in another property, we are looking at purchase a small business instead.
