When you have high quality tenants you want to keep a balance between appropriate rental increases and tenant satisfaction.

@Celine Li Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Good tip on Payrange. 

Im sorry, you act like you know the exact algorithm used by Air or VRBO, because "you worked for Amazon". but you are only guessing, as are most people. again, there are a lot of good hosts and owners, it is always going to be hard to get on the first page, hoping the filters help rule of competition.

Welcome to the community and be ready for a huge amount of information at your finger tips.

After owning the property for 1 week and putting in a lot of sweat equity, I've concluded that I want to keep the Inherited tenants based on the condition of their living space and the quality of the people, Knowing I want to keep them to save myself the headache of a  turnover and vacancy of a projected move out If I were to suddenly increase rents. 

Tip #1 - no such thing as one perfect market There is lots of data on Bigger Pockets and MTR experts that have released rankings of top cities for next year, but remember it's not just about the purchase-- it's also about the operation.

these tenant friendly laws seldom matter because the vacancy is so low the tenants want to stay in their units and realize an eviction will make it challenging to ever find a quality rental in this market.  

Im more a hands on learning definitely and as far as living in a unit i couldn't yet because its out of the kids school district  plus the limited space. but thats the goal, to buy a small air or inn to manage and run for work while still renting in our district and then looking to buy since we're renters again!
