There are 10 sfr for sale as a package deal.($169,000) All 2 bed 1 bath houses. All homes one the same street and on three parcels of lands. Tenants pay all utilities. All homes currently rented for 400 to 500 dollars. I am wondering how you would analyze this investment. Would you analyze them as one property or each individual. Also I would like to know way you would look at this investment like that.  

I lived in South Jersey in the 90's and Camden was a crappy place then. I would not want to own anything their.

I personally would leave the rent at $925.00 if I was making decent cash flow. In the big picture what is $1200.00 per year not really much. Sometimes folks need help. If this lady is a great tenant like you say I would help her. I am a firm believer that in life you have to give back and help folks that try to help their self. With this type of situation I personally would not increase her rent. Just imagine running her off and getting 2 or 3 bad tenants in a row(Karma) how much could that cost? If you are really in need of that $100.00 per month increase rents for the other tenants you have, since market rents will bare $1100.00.

I am sure there will be other investors on here that will disagree with me, but with this we will have to agree to disagree.          

thank you

I agree @Jay Hinrichs 

hang not hand

My girl friend is looking to hand her license in the Raleigh, NC market. Does anyone from Raleigh know of a agency with similar pricing in Raleigh or surrounding area?

First thank you for your service to our great county. Welcome to bigger pockets.

Welcome I was born in Wilmington, Del and lived in New Castle for sometime.

My current rentals are in low income(working class) areas not the burbs. To be honest I will not invest where I don't feel safe working on my investment properties. I know like everyone else does there are areas like that out there.
