Pretty much he gave me the confidence to move forward with my first purchase and I haven't looked back since!

It's got a PM @ 10% a month.I am moving back to TX and will be buying an owner occupied (1 unit) 4-plex in the same city as my current rental.

I would give the tenants the option of moving somewhere else or accepting the situation.As you pointed out, your "therapist" is using your residential rental as a business, which is a violation of your lease.

The goalposts have moved. 

This can help you understand the potential for growth and profitability in a particular location.Consider Your Investment GoalsYour investment goals should play a key role in your location decision.

So that doesn't mean we have a 'housing crisis', it means they need to move farther east like people have been doing forever.Regular income people used to live in Pacific Beach too.

(Think about telling someone you would help them move if they paid you a couple hundred.

@Tim Delaney my thoughts were like you're saying to move away from a problem property.

I always transfer the last months rent to the new lease, they technically are not in their last month, unless they are moving out. 

It's much easier to get it going when you purchase the property than to move it later.
