What kind of rent increase do you have each year? What kind of rent are you charing?
I am charging 1765 for a one-bedroom-one-bathroom condo unit. The condo community has pool and gym. It comes with one-car garage.
And the rent increase I put is 5$.

What do you think about sharing the cost of maintenance with tenant? I am considering putting it into lease at renewal.
Something like:
1. Dishwasher: 10% tenant's responsibility and 90% of landlord responsibility
2. Plumbing: 10% tenant's responsibility and 90% of landlord responsibility
....
I listed 1 and 2 because if tenant does not put sticky thing into dishwasher or drain, 1 and 2 should not happen.
What do you think? It is in Virginia.

May you please recommend me some experienced eviction attorneys around McLean VA area?
My gut is that I eventually will have to evict my current tenant for non-paying the rent, despite previous good landlord-tenant relationship with him.
He has not being paying the December rent, and not being communicating with me either. I tried to reach out, but to no avail. So the first day after the grace period, I sent him the 5 day notice.
