Ive had Inherited tenants with rough units where I didn’t trust them to move out on time (or on a planned date) or with proper notice, so I’ve typically planned some down time and reno work before listing, but that’s always a 1 off and then the rest of the turnovers have been smooth.

And I do intend on getting a new lease signed after their current lease expires.3, Good to know!

do u have dates of localBP meet ups in con roe /woodlands area

You shouldn't care who pays the rent or how much they pay; all you should care about is that 100% of the rent is paid on the due date.

My main focus is to buy, fix, bring the apartments to up to date to get the maximum rents, and have monthly cashflow.

The tenant knows what the date is and has time to move out. 

I wasn't talking about eviction.....once the MTM lease expires, just don't renew it.

It might sound funny but I genuinely believe that Real Estate investing is like dating.

At year end I give my cpa a 1 page report for each property that shows the dates of each income and expense and the totals for each kind for the last year.

The notice to quit was given him the right to stay in the house until October 1st, he filed an appearance on November 15th (not sure why he had a month and a half to file an appearance, I think was my attorneys negligence, but he says that is the time it takes) I am still waiting for a mediation date, but it is already 4 months he is living there for free.
