The government of Costa Rica has a policy to limit development and doesn't invest much in infrastructure to bring tourism.

@Brady Ascheman To make the decision strictly from a Property Management standpoint you have to calculate your vacancy cost and cost to acquire a new tenant to know if a rental increase is even a smart play. 

I have found it to be the best policy.

I have waived our no pet policy twice in the last few days for guests impacted by fires.  

Just be sure it’s documented and consistently applied to avoid any Fair Housing pitfalls.Another option is to stick with strictly quantifiable criteria—credit score, income ratio, etc.

"I mistakenly had a rental policy instead of a builder’s risk policy."

Whether we agree with these items or not, the following are inflationary government policies: stimulus, student debt relief, tariffs, increased child tax credits, limited immigration, and big government deficit spending.

Keep in mind rent control is 1 thing, its a laws for existing tenants but some city's like Newark are so strict that you must get approval for what rent can be even after a tenant moves out and new ones move in. 

I have recently switched my insurance from home owners to landlord policy.

Some people will say, "Take out a quality Insurance Policy and you will be protected."
