I was listening to a podcast on BP and Brandon mentioned Renttoretirement.com.  I checked out the website, but haven't found that many reviews.  Has anyone else in the BP community used this company as another investing strategy to increase their portfolio?

I've noticed that most landlords want to continue raising there rents even if they haven't done any updating to their properties.  If you had a tenant in your place for 4 years, would you continue increasing the rent?  Let's say your unit was a high turnover unit that you couldn't keep a tenant in it for over 12 months.  Then you were able to procure a long standing tenant who pays their rent with out any problems.  What would you do as a landlord?

I'm at a cross road right now.  My area is way to expensive for me to purchase a duplex for a house hack, so I was thinking of waiting and just invest in another area.  Should I consider going ahead and just purchase an investment property now, and just wait another year? Duplexes in my area have skyrocketed and I would rather buy right instead of over paying should I just wait to see if the market will calm down in my area?  Has anyone been in this situation before, that could offer any suggestions?

Has anyone created a property analysis calculator that is a little bit more easier to understand.  I was trying to work through the BP analysis calculator and it is sort of complicated.  I need something to practice on so I can get good at analyzing properties.
