What are ways you have seen landlords calculate rent raises?
I plan to raise rent by 2% yearly, and round to the nearest $25. After that, I will re-evaluate every 5 years based on local rent. I've asked for others op...

Rather than tearing down everyone, I’d rather focus on how different teaching styles and strategies might suit different investors' needs.When someone consistently promotes one product while criticizing others they haven't tried, it undermines the trust and authenticity that makes this forum valuable.I'm not trying to create conflict here, but as someone who has learned a lot from different educators in the land investing space, it is concerning when I see someone posting carefully disguised spam and trying to make it look like an unbiased review.
