So you could give them a 30-day notice that you are taking the garage back, but I think that's bad practice.

Some places you will have turnover, bad tenants and have unexpected expenses. $900 seems low for a 3/1 so I think that can be pushed up. 

I keep thinking about tools that can help me reduce risk by catching errors or red flags in seller disclosures and inspection docs, but that's likely because I've had a bad experiences with both.A simple and obvious example is a seller checking "No" for pests section, such as Scorpions and Snakes in Arizona when the property is in the desert, so obviously, there will be snakes and scorpions. 

Long story short, I am in a bad financial condition as of recently.

If you have a bad feeling about someone or fear they are going to steal your idea that is not a partner you want to be presenting to. 

You don't live "bad" financial discipline, accrue wealth and THAN gain healthy financial habits from the $, that's nonsensical.

I'm going to give a verbal warning followed up with a text message describing what was talked about so we have records if something bad happens. 

Long story short.
Went thru a relationship issue and lost it all last year. So the credit score is horrible (was a 822 before. Yes I am sick about it).
Over the summer i bought a home in cash that's worth 140-160k. ...

Good move, or bad?

Marcos reputation has been solid up to now so many note holders believe that he intends to make good on this turn of bad fortune.
