I did the same thing for my husband when we met, and most likely let my personal experience dictate my reaction more than I should have.

I have mixed reactions.... yes there are cut backs on usage and thanks to our government, the $1.4 trillion dollars worth of water that was dumped into the ocean to save a 3 inch "possibly endangered" guppy didn't help us.

I personally think it is an over reaction but there is an underlying unease.

My first reaction was to make sure you tell them the truth.

If not, I would leave the current tenants' rent the same and rent the vacant units at an increased amount.You just have to take an educated guess at the reaction of your tenants.

Only action can cause reaction.

I would go with turnkey property investing that offer immediate rental income, positive cash flow, and free local property management.My first reaction was "I would like a unicorn as well!"

What makes you think the growth over the next 20 years (assuming there is growth for 20 years) will cause a different real estate market reaction than it has in the past 15 years during a time of similar growth?

@Jason Crain @Andres Piedra I am with you on the NO ,  I like what you said about the market Andres, my initial reaction was like what @Marcia Maynard said and I had to refrain from saying it in a dashed off email what was in my head.

I mean, I honestly think that would be my reaction too (!)
