The tenant sounds like she had issues. 

Quote from @Devin James: Stay the course!

New York recently passed the “Good Cause Eviction” which protects tenants from eviction without legitimate reason.

With all of the underlying assumptions being equal, the current rent roll provided the following matrix.

This way, even if the monthly payment remains the same, the amount you pay towards principal each month goes up. 

Would love to hear your insights, tips, or any lender recommendations you’ve had success with!

Financially, the numbers make sense, but I need to have a proper inspection since this is my first home (and I'm going unrepresented) and the house is built in 1915 with some renovations that were clearly done by the investor selling the property rather than a professional.Question: Although  previous owner has owned the property for 3 years and rented to tenants previously, should I be concerned that the legal zoning is only for SFH?

I am planning to use this business (SMLLC)  to build the houses on my lots.

I have a full-time job so I can only be part-time.Why would anyone pay you $10,000 to sell a property when I could pay the same amount to hire a top agent with 30 years experience?

Most of the renovations we did were upstairs for the tenants unit (duplex up).
