I am nervous that starting eviction for nonpayment would drag out her leaving and end up costing me more money in the long run. 

It wont let me post a link.

And your renovation costs are $50000.

Self-Management:Pros: Saves money, offers control, and builds tenant relationships.Cons: Time-consuming, stressful, and needs expertise.Hiring a Property Manager:Pros: Saves time, provides professional expertise, and market insights.Cons: Costs money, less control, and finding a good manager can be tough.What about you?

Getting started I wouldn't avoid single family homes, there are more of them, they cost less comparatively, and as Greg stated they are just less complex.

this is so needed in the market . especially in cases for seasoning where borrower has to provide cost of renovation . if this would populate a report and all invoices attached to it that would be beyond amazing of a tool to have 

This could cost 10,000 or more depending on your budge, size of unit and quality furnishings.

The cost to evict, in terms of lost rent, vacancy, turnover costs, plus the work involved to secure a new tenant who ON AVERAGE will be WORSE than the one you would be evicting sounds counter-productive.

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!
