This 4th property was bought because I just had a baby, we have 3 dogs, and my spouse couldn’t do the commute from vancouver, WA so we bought a house in Beaverton, OR across from work.  9 months living here and it’s way too small and we need a real yard for the dogs- these homes are more like row houses with a small patch of gated soil in the front....We only put 5% down so we will sell at a loss and rentals here are so cheap, if we rent we will take about $400 a month loss....I now stay at home with the baby and manage our properties- I have a real estate broker license so I can claim the loss....Question is- would it be better to leverage the funding and keep this house even with the negative cash flow or just sell it?

I've brainstormed the possibilities as simple as asking the seller to correct problem dog prior to closing to Concessions greater than the amount of eviction process and loss rent.

Also, they had two little dogs that wouldn’t shut up and caused issues with the neighbors.

I am a professional dog trainer producing decent cashflow currently closing on my first single family primary residence as well as developing an 8 acre property in Ventura county which will include both a residence & dog training facility/kennel. 

Hey @Joseph Gozlan, have you considered a dog wash station?  

You don't Ask Jeeves or use that small start-up search engine that donates 10 cents of every search to saving the dogs when you search you "Google" it.

My girlfriend at the time and I ended up getting a 950 sq. ft. condo just outside the city in Medford where we live with our dog and two cats.

It doesn't matter that there is a dog park and a passive solar duplex.

Having said that, a hungry bird dog whether an agent or not is always useful.

Here's the skinny:We just had someone come and rip out all the flooring (carpet/carpet pad)We ripped out the carpet because our cats I think were marking territory (likely from the previous owner's dog marking his), and it grew to a point where we needed to remove the carpet.I'm not entirely sure what the ground is under -- clearly its concrete, but with some painting veneer on top (see pictures)?
