Thanks for the feedback everyone. Very much appreciated!

I am wondering about people's experiences raising rents on existing tenants when purchasing a new rental property. Would anyone be willing to share their experiences with this process? How did you go about informing the existing tenant? What was their reaction? Did you have hang ups about raising the rent on someone who had living in the property you were purchasing for a long time? Did it seem like you were disrupting a huge part of their life? Maybe undermining it in some way? Thanks BiggerPockets community!

Awesome. Thank you very much Basit. I really appreciate you taking the time to help answer my question!

Hello Bigger Pockets community.

I am at the beginning of my (hopefully) long and fruitful journey into real estate investing. I plan on focusing on single family rentals for the purpose of generating cash flow.

I live in Queens and was wondering if anyone here also lives in the area and had insight into which state would be best to start exploring for my first SFR: New York, New Jersey, Or Pennsylvania. I have heard that different states have different laws regarding tenant rights vs. landlord rights.

Or am I over thinking this and the reality is I need to simply find a solid local SFR and start the process regardless of the state?

Thank you Bigger Pockets Community!
