I am probably one of the few landlords that is not so greedy to only care about my cash flow.

I don't want to be greedy but does anyone out there never increase rent on a long term tenant?

When the tenant receives the rent increase, if they were a good tenant, they think, wow, I've been an awesome tenant, paid rent on time, never caused any problems and in return this GREEDY landlord has to nickel and dime me and raise my rent $20-$30 per month because he doesn't have enough money already.  

The current tenant may not be out in time, there will undoubtedly be some cleaning or repairs that have to be done, you'll have to figure out what is old or new damage regarding new tenant - really, don't be so greedy.  

Your family thinks it wastes time away from them ,the tenants think your evil and a greedy oppressor ,The city thinks your a profiteer trying to get bilk money from the townspeople.. my advice is don’t make it personal your just going to be let down when the tenant leaves you With no rent ,a dead hooker stuffed in the closet and  cat urine soaked carpeting

I am not saying you should be a greedy jerk, but I have sadly learned that this is one of those that it does not make you a bad person for holding to people to the agreements they made with you.

Which leads to the examination when figuring maintenance, did you find our going trade rates in the area?

Doesn’t matter if it’s fair or one party is being more greedy than should.

Upper management being greedy, incompetent and uncaring.
