What is your goal for property ? flip or keep for a rental?
You want to contact current landlord or PM to see what the lease says about notice to show property.
Also if tenant has current lease you proably can not get them to leave until the lease term is up

Welcome Kelly You aer in the right place to begin your journey
BP is a great resource. Full of great tips and reads. One tip that I picked up here is while you are starting out and saving money for your investments, start driving / visiting areas you would like to invest in so you get a feel for prices, rents , house conditions etc, and visit and look at lots of homes and open houses so your eye get used to looking at repairs / upgrades that are normal in a particular market. I really dont think you can look at too many properties, and the more you look, the more knowledge you will gain for that market

nice to hear @Nicole Clemens Was this your RE investment ? Great job on your first if so
couple of questions if you don't mind . Did you do any rehab / renovations on the property , and did you fund them out of the incoming rent ? and do you think about pulling more than $80K after the appraisal came back for $150K. Seems like pulling out an extra$10-20K would be a great step into your next property without affecting your cash flow too muck

Michael
Just read your blog. nice work on the property and providing updates. Did you ever find about / confirm the $1600 water bill ? Did the PM ever give you any feedback. looks like you had the cash reserves to pay it, bit thats still not a good suprise

Joe
What makes you think the duplex is worth < 82K besides the price history ? What is the current condition ? Since you listed $0 for CAPEX i assume it is move in ready ?
As Michaela said, the banks appraisal would look at comps more than property finances. Do you have any comparables in hte area ? what price and rents are they getting ?
