The actual verbiage of the CDC order is as follows:"Nothing in this Order precludes evictions based on a tenant, lessee, or resident: (1) Engaging in criminal activity while on the premises; (2) threatening the health or safety of other residents; [10] (3) damaging or posing an immediate and significant risk of damage to property; (4) violating any applicable building code, health ordinance, or similar regulation relating to health and safety; or (5) violating any other contractual obligation, other than the timely payment of rent or similar housing-related payment (including non-payment or late payment of fees, penalties, or interest)

There are other reasons you may evict a tenant such as:- Engaging in criminal activity- Threatening health or safety of other residents- Damaging or posing risk of damage to the property- Violating building or health ordinance or similar- Violating any other lease condition accept for non payment of rent- Lease hold over after giving noticeHere is how it works if you need to remove a tenant.

One tenant is violating the lease in multiple ways by bringing in friends to live there, causing excessive noise, bringing in a pitbull, engaging in drug activity and causing major damage.

then they have to give the 90 day notice then another month after that to get the law firm or trustee service engaged and file the default then you have the time it takes by law anywhere from 90 days in Say GA to 3 to 5 years in New York .

You never know, he might all of sudden realize he's not being reasonable and re-engage negotiation with me since I stayed persistent and proved to be a serious buyer.Every no is closer to a yes.What other choices do I have?

Additionally, reach out to others in the area to engage and get conversations going. 

@Nick RuffiniI am NOT an SEC attorney BUT that sounds like a slippery slope.Find a team of operators that allow qualified sophisticated investors to participate in their syndications.506b allows you and you friend to invest (separately &/or together) and it's 100% above board if you qualify as sophisticated.Really get to know each-other (it goes both ways), build confidence and trust over time; learn the business inside and out and when they present an opportunity that's aligned with your criteria - invest alongside of them.The SEC requires them to have a substantive preexisting relationship before collaborating on an investment.

I know or have worked alongside a lot of people in the Great Falls area and can point you to some good people if you need.

I live in the area, I am familiar with managing my mother’s properties along side her and she currently manages one.  

I recently got engaged and will need to be finding a place to live by next October 2020, but I wanted it to be a potential investment property for us as well.
