If you do rent Tracey, just have a clear understand what your responsibilities are and what theirs and have it in writing.

Laws vary in different states regarding evictions. In most states you have to give 30 days notice after violation or non-payment.

Give it a bit more time. Renting can be very lucrative and it can be a headache. Depends on how careful you are selecting your renter and how well you have checked references.

At least 90% of our renting experiences have been very positive. My parents rented out 4 houses at one time and had very few problems.

I think it helps to have a good repoire with your renters too.
