Why wouldn't you buy a two-family or single-family where you are now, rent to people you know, learn about landlording, and then keep it as a college rental after?

I've heard of some hosts adding to the house rules that the guests must complete those steps after booking on the OTA platform, otherwise the booking will be canceled.At my company, we don't do background and credit checks for OTA bookings, but we do ask why they're renting a MTR and who will be staying with them.

For the MTR option I calculated a rent price of $2,900 (on the lower side) and got a ROI of 12% but a negative CoC return.

@Alya BoumizaI would say your assumption of the rent is wrong. 

I'm not sure if I should sell or rent.

Hello all,I gave priority to buying my primary residence given that I rented for the past few years.

You can have 2 identical properties with same rent income, but the expenses and capex will be different.

However, RUBS is generally a contractual issue, and additionally, may be limited by local rent control. 

@Amy Lin - If it were me I would have an experienced attorney start the eviction process immediately.They are probably going to hang on as long as they can rent free as they have the closing proceeds.They might care about their credit if they do plan on buying another place, so you might have some leverage there.

In San Diego I'm renting 2 homes out, but I can't afford to buy another Investment here.
