Great replies here, and thank you for sharing examples of what you have or have not done as a private landlord.I do think there is a time and place to offer concessions, just not for people like you and me that are owning/managing portfolios smaller than an apartment complex with 100's of units.

I’m weighing two options for our housing situation and would greatly appreciate your advice, given the complexities involved.1.Renovate and Buy Another Property•Invest to renovate our current home adding a bedroom to the house given our family outgrew the house.
