Call tenants that are occupying similar spaces around town and ask them when their lease expires, notify them of your available units. 

@Jason E.

I have as Kiyosaki would say been an E my whole life and my goal is to transition to an I.I currently am working two jobs.

Your best bet, however, might be to expense the interest you pay on your Schedule E as an expense against your rental income.

You get to keep all the potential leads and hopefully, the house will find a buyer.After that, you can go door knocking and have the same conversation - what can you do to help them in real estate...None of the above has cost you extra money beyond the startup costs.After that, you can buy expired listings, FSBO and neighborhood data.

I searched through the forums, and found a lot of people asking about liquidating 401k/IRA etc.

@Satha PalaniI'd check the following:Ensure the furnace filter has been changedCheck the dryer outletCheck the attic and crawl space/basementI'm just thinking that smell can come from a few things that are expired, old, and/or dead.

@David DavidWe have to make guesses because of the limited details you provided.If you have a Sch C business, say a general contractor business, and you use a space that you own as a warehouse for your business, then you deduct all expenses, such as local property taxes, utilities and depreciation of this property on the same Sch C.If you use half of it for your own GC business and rent the other half to someone else's business, then the rental income goes on Sch E.

His option was expiring, he couldn't qualify for a mortgage, and was about to lose this potential gain. 

With many REITs trading at low multiples of FFO and liquidating assets at close to if not all time highs so they have the ability to buy into new real estate assets at a much lower buy in it bodes well for future growth long term.
