Tenant has agreed to move out tomorrow, leave the keys in the kitchen & text me when they vacate.
I told them if they leave, they do not owe any rent for January & I will cancel the eviction process. This is a great outcome!

“IF” (big if) they leave Sunday night, will change the locks and assess the damage & work required to rehabilitate to get it ready to rent again. Coordinating with my repair guy & a cleaning service.

Fingers crossed that I dodged an expensive bullet.
