How did you arrive at a 2% vacancy.

I'm planning on relocating in the next few months and wanted to get some ground work laid out prior to arriving.

i'd check with them (city, etc.) to make sure there are no other surprises. how did you arrive to your $20k estimate, btw?

I have arrived at a rough estimate of 2010's cash flow by using 2010's rent and subtracting PM fees @ 10%, Vacancy (using 2018 rates with a floor of 4%), and Taxes+Insurance+CapEx reduced by 15% (to account for inflation).

Don't wait until the recession arrives to sell underperforming assets Increase cash reserves– whilst this can decrease returns it is all about being able to weather the storm, cash is king!

Check arrives. 

So many were waiting for the economic fall out.2015-2016 market got hotter, way hotter.

We submitted the lease renewal to the wife (non military member), and she emailed us that her husband is without wi-fi access (not completely unbelievable, but spouse ISN'T currently deployed in a conflict area, ie, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc,) and would therefore be unable to sign the new lease until he arrived back in the US.  

Unfortunately they arrive set at 1.00 so adjusting them to say 2.00 is a pain.

Some are hotter than others, some are more expensive than others.
