You don’t want to get caught below market when your city/state decides to implement rent control mid-lease and trap you below market forever. 4) I’ve never raised rent less than $25 (already at or above market.) or $50-100 (5%) if even slightly below market.

Remember you don't have to own a property to control it.

Just wondering if anyone has experience with having ceiling fans that operation on a remote control (with a master wall switch) in any of their rentals.

If the lender has control, it comes from their portfolio of funds.

Our preference is to take ownership now, so that we have an element of control.

If you can't keep control of your personal finances, you are highly unlikely to succeed in real estate investing.

I think its a great idea to pay off debt just make sure your expenses dont get out of control and stick to a budget.

I'd also try to get A feeling for how much control this person wanted to have in the deal.

Contingencies for fourplex properties include inspection, financing, appraisal, rental income, and pest inspection.

The more control and say you lose, outside of your expertise,  the higher the chances of non-achievement.
