I benefitted from rent inflation, but I also did some things that would help improve net cash flow (appealing property taxes, for example).Happy to send you some resources with more details on how I accomplished it.

Takes me maybe 5-10 min per property at tax time to add it up and end enter it on turbo tax.

In addition to comfort and confidence to manage close by and local knowledge.

Making this particular bedroom bigger has three benefits: 1) bigger primary as I add ~100 sqft, 2) no need to change anything else except for face lift, 3) the garage is exactly below this bedroom and it's a single car garage, with this addition, it'll be two car tandem garage. 

Additionally, the tenant has expressed interest in purchasing the property and if i did allow him to do that it would only be via seller finance, yes i would seller finance to him while still holding my existing mortgage. 

Additionally, there was still a fully functioning bathroom during that time.

Additionally, he reported a significant portion of his income comes from a side business he has, and he offered to provide me with "a couple of invoices."

Are you seeing additional value-add from the service beyond just Rolodex contractor dispatch?

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

Is there another way I could accomplish this?
