Hi: I'm seeing a lot of deals in low population areas of 5000 to 20,000 people or so.

There is not even a patriotic duty to increase one's taxes.Over and over again the Courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible.

As someone who makes offers primarily over the phone I'm taking a hard look at docusign.com to email my documents and have them signed electronically. echosign.com is another popular alternative.The good side is it avoids messy faxing back and forth; the downside is it requires basic computer literacy which may be unworkable with a segment of the population.

If the tenant is on the cusp increase the security deposit and be direct with them about your intentions on receiving the rent on time.

While I don't do the calculations, per se, the time/money tradeoff is always in the back of my head...Remember, there are two way to increase your hourly earn:1.

Ryan has has bills steadily increasing and the water department history shows consistent increases.

I've read the other posts on finding a good company to manage the SDIRA and have found some valuable information, but am more interested in individual opinions on the best places to start, with the intention of increasing the amount of cash available to put towards purchases and rehabs.

Let the white flight happen, and ultimately increase the value of the property (multi) by having higher rent and fewer services.

I'm looking forward to increasing my knowledge level beyond what I've read and from a little experience with cash flow properties.

As far as rent increase goes, you will have to give them a 30 day notice to increase the rent.
