Anyways, here's what I've came up with:++++++++[TODAY’S DATE][RESIDENT’S NAME][STREET ADDRESS][APARTMENT NUMBER][CITY, STATE/PROVINCE ZIP/POSTAL CODE] Re: New Landlord Transition LetterDear Mr.

Its not unusual that your insurance premium jumped, but I’m wondering if the jump was so drastic only because you switched to a landlord policy, or if its because your insurance policy is renewing and taking into account increased costs of labor and materials.

If tenant's renew, there is no turnover cost.  

These loan programs, HERO (Renovate America) Renew Financial and Ygrene pay direct to contractors.

But, if it's my tenant I'd plan on non-renewing.

We typically do new leases with any acquired tenants at their next lease renewal.

Have you raised your rents each renewal cycle to at least kept up with the inflation of your variable costs of taxes and property insurance?  

It appears he does have the benefit of a window unit.If you do fork over the big bucks for central air; don't renew this guys lease when it normally ends and increase the rent for the next tenant as you are now providing central air in your property.Gail

It’s probably too late now, but I would add to renewal or future leases that appliances provided in the home are courtesy only and Landlord is not responsible for maintenance or repairs to them; then list such appliances.

Small yearly increases train tenants with what to expect which reduces stress and allows them to plan ahead for lease renewal time. 4.
