Now all taxes are based on a super low rate you can’t fight. 

For me at least, doubling my profit is well worth the extra two months of expenses on the market.

However, the rental value this area is very low compared to the Home values and mortgage rate.

I just go in at the first of every month and code each line item to the corresponding property and note what the expense was for (Repair, HOA Fee, Mortgage payment, etc).

Then do a thorough research on tenant applicants (note: leaving this to a PM may be hazardous to your financial health) and choose the one that is most “stable” with the best potential for long term tenancy.This advice is contrary to maximization of rental income, but IMO will reduce expenses of tenant turnover, property damage, property management fees so much that the difference in bottom line income will be quite small.  

If you can't find a property that cash flows with real underwriting numbers, 8-10% vacancy, 8-10% property managment (whether you do it yourself or hire someone, you still need to account for that time/expense) then don't buy it.  

Shoot me a DM if you want some help with finding a condo or house with a low rate that's on market.

In this type of situation, they want low interest rate with low down payment also.

As you can tell marine the appraisal came back 40k low and I was so dumbfounded.  

If the way to increase the selling value of a MFH is to increase NOI by increasing income or decreasing expenses; why are the majority of sellers putting their properties on the market with under market rent?
