Now your fully renovated home is getting top dollar rents, you could probably refinance too since rates are poised to go lower (lowering your monthly obligation), you could open a HELOC before you move with the extra equity and use that to fund your next deal and now you have 2 homes! 

@Steve Vaughan  when we went through the 08 to 2010 debacle and over 200 landlords handed me back their houses.. and lost ALL their money... it was an eye opener and they were all landlords all west coast based   a few on east coast.but they walked..  

More than what I could get on the open market.  

I am open to other states/ cities as well.

Listening to YouTube big shots that have great advice on professional ways to handle problematic guests ( most are great but everyone will get bad apples), staying at the property when you have an open window of time and actually get the guest experience (this is critical), and looking at your click thru and conversion rates to get a good baseline.There is way more work to running an STR than a LTR.

Are there areas/cities more open to multifamily rezoning compared to others?

I am open to any advice and my current struggle is finding a duplex in my budget.

I highly encourage all my tenants to keep open communication with me about any struggles to pay rent, and generally they do.

I’d be happy to jump on a call with you or chat over a private message if you’re open to that.
