I assume I can easily NOT renew a lease if I am moving into the unit as owner occupied and the tenants shouldn't be able to fight it.Thanks for all advice and anyone who would like to connect online or in person for a drink and to talk REI.Scott

You know, because, Cleveland:)I would recommend having whoever your local guide is, both show you some property you have pre-screened online, and also have them show you some they have selected.  

The prior response should give you a thorough view of the options that are available but knowing which one to use depends on your particular situation and how creative you can get.The reason for this is because everyone is in a different situation or tax bracket.

I'm always baffled when peoples first response is to contact a lawyer.

Ryan, thanks so much for your detailed response.

I got divorced in March of 2016, so my ex is still in the house, and I am still on the mortgage (although it is her responsibly per the divorce papers).

When you post online, show lots of pictures to stand out.

You might need to brace yourself for some (more) hard-hitting responses suggesting reality checks.My own advice is: please do NOT rely on turnkey providers to get you closer to your future goals, for the simple reason that ALL the cream will already have been taken out of any profit, by you buying properties off THEM!

No matter what you end up putting on the gutters I wouldn't expect the renter to ever be responsible for making sure they are doing the job.   

While there is some variability by region, Kijiji.ca is by far the most popular on-line listing site.
