Application fee is non-refundable and paid directly to a third-party.

Sacramento also has a restrictive AirBnB ordinance for non-owner occupied but most people just ignore it. There are a few news articles about the City potentially cracking down on this but I doubt they do much. I do not use AirBnB but I thought about it. 

I can't imagine your salaries not taking a dip in Sacramento, but that's the trade off for lower cost of living. If you just purchased a duplex in Sacramento cash flowing that much, why wouldn't you try to do more here? 

You would likely wind up paying more in attorney fees than any amount of money, if any, you would collect from a suit. Chalk this one up to RE tuition. I'm sorry you had to pay it this way!

You can look up all City of Sac permits online. It's very convenient. 

@Derek Jones I just did an owner financed purchase and sale (PSA) and the national title company did not provide a PSA. The seller also needed a deed of trust and promissory note. I would not trust that to a title company. Paying an attorney to do that protects the seller and is under $2k. It's definitely worth it from the seller's prospective. 

Is the property in the City or County? Within the City, duplexes are allowed in the R-1 zone on a corner lot. 

City of Sacramento: water/sewer/trash for me is $297. 78.

Sounds like you need to speak to an attorney versed in this area. I am not, but I can provide a recommendation. PM if interested.

I would give her the 60 day notice and find a new tenant that held up their end of the bargain. It sucks that the tenant is older and may have to pay more to live in the same area, but she also seems to have made some mistakes along the way. There's no reason to deal with a headache tenant in this market.
