My wife and I have done all the terms (short, mid, long term rentals) and have done some live in flips.

If the eviction goes to court, then there is a record of that eviction on their file and it will make it harder for them to find another place to live (assuming the landlord does a background check).Not renewing the lease happens when either party decides they simply don't want to renew the lease. 

There are also Zoom calls where people practice their underwriting live.

It very well could become a large enough investment to be worthwhile, also solving for "unexpected emergencies ", for the most part and would an easy self management situation if you were to live onsite in one of your connected townhomes.

However, if you are profiting over 6 figures, the property might be too expensive to live in order to truly house hack.

I lived in Houston for a dozen years (moved last summer) and really wanted to make an STR work, but I just couldn't get there.

There should be a class action law suit again multifamily mindset that has ripped off so many people and tore their lives apart in a horrible way.

You have multiple people living in each others spaces.

(I lived in Houston for 29 years--last place was the Rice Lofts downtown.  

I flipped and did some buy and hold when I lived in Florida.
