When you signed a lease with renter B AND accepted the security deposit/first month rent, you created a legally binding contractual obligation.

If it's a seller's market and you are pretty much rock solid on the $200k when you apply for the refi then go for it.  

Taking these people to small claims is like wringing water from a rock.

If they ask why you are walking tell them that the repair is a band aid and it is going to need a new system soon and you want the sales price to reflect that.

 - Austin/Round Rock: $537,475- Dallas/Ft Worth/Arlington: $430,000- Houston/Sugar Land: $350,000- San Antonio/New Braunfels: $340,0003.

A few things that I like about Cleveland is the available inventory of SFH and Multi family in the Class B and Class C neighborhoods for an affordable price where there is good tenant demand and Ohio state has landlord friendly laws. 

Eg- $500k to $4MM purchase price- 10-20 units- 70s to 90s vintage- Value add with $150 to $250 below market rents- B class location or in A, B and C locationsShow them you know what you are talking about and don’t be afraid to call bs and say no.

I rented out rooms in the property on Airb&B and paid the mortgage.

Sleeper market, good house, decent return profile, and to rip the band-aid off on our first purchase.How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

.- ADU will bring 10 times of annual rent to appraisal.And ADUs tend to bring 50k or less than their cost to build.I spoke with my realtor and he suggests building as many units as possible, but he is even older than me and:- too conservative- believes that all immigrants live in compounds, multi-generations families ratio will increase- construction still costs a dime and nickel if you hire unlicensed guys and do owner-builders permits- he rocks in East Bay Area and is not very familiar with LA.Regarding conservative rents: the lot is almost 7000 sf, tons of street and off-street paved parking, but the property is located in not the best area of Covina.
