Peter, thanks for the great information.Seeing that residential evictions aren't starting until January 2022, does that mean that hearings also wont begin until then?

The only way to evict at the moment is if the tenant is destroying the property or there is an imminent safety risk. 

While you might be able to raise the rent ( like in your case the 60 bucks)  if your relying on Hud section 8 it wont work that way they only pay a certain amount and tenants being able to raise their co pay could be a big issue. but if you can raise rates then like what is mentioned its the renter who suffers.. 

Just make sure they document when you moved in and called to switch the utilities over and call periodically making sure they wont shut off service.

It wont be any easier than it is now, especially when they are young.

Im not using my father because I wont be on the loan at all initially so I get not tax benefits.

The tenant was not wanting to move he destroyed the place.

A good private lender wont break the bank because you won't have the loan that long for interest to be a problem.Still make sure there's no pre payment and partial release clause

(I want to invest remotely so house-hacking/FHA route wont work for me). 

My concern is that quality tenants wont want to pay to view but this may be a regional thing.
