Two options I see as a landlord 1) If lease has been violated, eviction notice could be sent. 2) Request a new lease be signed due to new terms (whatever I decide they may be) and then not approve the adult child to be added.Has anyone else dealt with a similar issue or have a recommendation?

How did you decide between the two?

@Min Zhang I am actually reading that book now, and have found it to be quite helpful in starting to build an understanding of what it takes to succeed in investing out of state!

In six months, you will have done more research than most on these two alternatives, and you will have your answer. 

You have to foreclose, which could take a year.Just a thought or two.

I maintain two rentals and the pool requires very little attention compared to other issues.

Personally, I would rather market the rental for another month or two before moving forward with the applicant.

If you want to maximize your max rents then if might be a good idea to condomise it so that you can get rents as two separate units.

Dealing with people getting along is something that comes with renting by the room but vetting the tenant to make sure they are a good fit can help minimize this.Getting a house cleaner every two weeks would help minimize people not getting a long.

@Manu Ramos After 20 years of owning and operating two Bed and Breakfasts I found myself in a position of needing to find a job with very few transferable workforce skills.
