Even with a bump of $200 in rent.

When the ROE is significantly smaller than my CoC return (based on initial investment) I know it's time to make a move to increase the velocity of the money.

As everyone is getting for the holidays to ramp up and the new year to turn, I want to give some insight into a simple thing that me and my team have been doing to increase our ROI by about 10-15% each month.  

Anywhere that one can buy properties for under $100k is very unlikely to have the rent increases that you will need over time to create positive cashflow, or the price appreciation that you will need to make this a profitable endeavor.

You can also expect increasing HOA fees, and there may be some problems renting a property inside a difficult.You don't have any experience, prices are at an all-time high, and rates are also high. 

You paid the property owner $40,000 in rent.  

I never saw the unpaid rent (and knew that I wouldn't). 

However, the depreciation claimed while the property was a rental must be accounted for upon the future sale of the personal residence, which could increase your capital gains tax liability.The adjusted basis of the property (original cost minus depreciation) will be used to calculate gains or losses at the time of sale.

These were financial mistakes we made when we were younger, and unfortunately, they snowballed over time.We currently rent but own a rental property out of state that cash flows $600/month and has about $190,000 in equity.

But once I got the bills, I increased the rent with the tenant's approval and signed an addendum to the lease stating the rent increase would be X and the owner would take over utilities.
