Otherwise, they will abuse the relationship when they face a financial challenge.Tenants never want an increase in their rent, but winter might be a good time to increase rent as there is typically less inventory on the market and who wants to move during the Holidays?

 $100 rent increase is $1200.  

The folks I know who do it successfully all fit into these categories: Class A/B properties in great locations with high tenant demand and quality tenant base.Owner used to live in the area, or in the property, or has close relatives or friends nearby/ personal connections and familiarity to the area.Owner is well capitalized/ can absorb negative cashflow indefinitely.Without the above, the risk increases substantially. 

Your math ain't mathing.If you said it will appreciate slower, ok, fair chance.

There is a good chance that after this high season is over, we will see another wave of properties hitting the market from owners who are unable or unwilling to stomach the low season.I can tell you that my property is doing well.

I calculate that I could refinance/increase equity and improve my cash flow by $430/month.  

Hi everyone,I had a situation today that I’d love your input on as fellow hosts.A guest who had a confirmed reservation reached out on the same day as check-in to ask if they could change the dates to after thanksgiving.While I always aim to be flexible when possible, this request came after today’s booking was already locked in, and allowing the change would mean I lose that night’s income with very little chance of rebooking last-minute.To be clear — the guest is not asking to cancel (initially wanted to cancel but now ...), just to move the entire reservation to new dates, which Airbnb typically treats as a modification.

If your chances of saving your a…. by simply having each property in a LLC rather than personally is small, say 1 out of 200.  

Since all my peers are already beginning to sign leases for houses or apartments for rent, and I won’t be purchasing a property until the summer, I am just wondering if chances are okay that I will find tenants for this house hack when the time comes.

Inflation is continually increasing prices.
