As for the gift I never did it on renewal but on a few occasions like when there was an annoying plumbing issue or contractor caused unnecessary inconvenience I have given $100 gift card to Home Depot or Lowes as a way to show my appreciation and figuring it would likely end up spent on house something anyway. 

@Nicolás Eduardo Larach León you just joined and haven't filled out your profile, so no idea where you live.Here's some educational info for you:The Real Estate Crash of 2008-2010 caused real estate prices to crash across the country - but didn't affect rent amounts.

Misusing them is.When each system does its job, your books stop being stressful and start being a strategic asset.What part of your bookkeeping setup causes the most confusion right now?

You’re spot on—the market is no longer about "buying NYC" generally, but about navigating specific asset sizes.Crossing the 10-unit mark (total ownership across NY State) is the major tripwire for Good Cause Eviction laws.

If your city has rent control it almost certainly does not allow you to end the tenancy without any cause.  

Market tenants will pay for a few months and then cause more damage in turnover costs then they paid and any good tenant will not want to live in a C class area.

Termites and hurricanes seem to be the main cause of investors/buyers concerns. 

This means that the IRS would consider you to have withdrawn the entire amount of the IRA causing you to get hit with taxes and penalties on the entire amount of the IRA. 

On a side note if several months vacancy and repairs are causing significant financial distress it doesn’t sound like you have enough cash reserve available to cover the costs that can arise from being a landlord.

These are some of the easiest cold calls you can make cause the owners are willing to hear you out and listen to you.
