When we had more properties we would increase it, but it was not linear, but for me comfortable would be $20k for the first property and $5k increase for each additional door on top of that. 

.- Current Rent is 150$- $200 behind market avg.I am very comfortable in single family homes in this town (own 18 SFH rented and performing well).

I had built a new build on Aiken  First modern design on that side of town ;)

Simple as that.So, ultimately my suggestion is to look into whether you can design your lease such that you're able to prevent and address hoarding situations.

Give up some of your personal comfort to increase earnings so you can pay to maintain the gift your mother gave you.6.

look at 50 properties over the next 6 months and make reasonable offers that you're comfortable with.

@Kyle SimmonsYeah, 1-2% is fair, but as mentioned previously, as the seller you can ask for whatever amount that you feel comfortable with so the buyer doesn't have the urge to just walk away from the deal without having anything to lose.

A hard money loan is designed to be paid off in the first 6-12 months.

My advice would be to knock it out of the park in terms of design and amenities and then you have less to worry about when it comes to the competition.
