You might consider hiring a property management company to take over the management since it sounds like you don't enjoy it. 

Guaranteed ROI of 9% the first five years and then 85/15 split after. 10 owner days a month so they can also enjoy their investment.Personally I’ve only just started looking into this, and there are a huge variety of terms between companies, so I don’t have all the details yet.

@Mike Dymski, Chad certainly has a lot of wisdom to pass on not only in his Podcast but I also truly enjoy his Blog post.

In the mean time, I want to enjoy the tax benefits and passive income that comes with rentals, while I work towards that goal.

This is not "abandonment" and your Tenant is legally in possession with the right of quiet enjoyment.

But that's what he told me.The section in the title policy that the Zoning attorney cited under the "covered risks" section:"The violation or enforcement of any law, ordinance, permit or governmental regulation (including those relating to building and zoning) restricting, regulating, prohibiting, or relating to:the occupancy, use, or enjoyment of the land"The Zoning Department is saying that the garage use violated the city ordinances.

You are providing a cool place for someone that has worked their tail off to enjoy.

Good luck at school and don't enjoy the college life too much!

Don't hate on the tenant applicants that, like you, enjoy being their own boss and setting their own hours, provided that this desire isn't getting in the way of steady/increasing income. :)If they are dodgy about showing this stuff, or want you to focus on some future projection they've created in Excel or via a guru framework (yup, the taxi alternatives have taxi gurus just like we have RE and airbnb gurus!)

Luckily, we have attic ladders for a simple and convenient solution to start enjoying that extra space you have.
