In fact, I have still been increasing my monthly ask with turnover.I agree with what @Dena Puliatti said - it is not a cash flow play in Huntsville right now whatsoever, but more of a "break even" cash flow play for appreciation.Folks, there is a LOT of dysinformation on Bigger Pockets right now about the Huntsville and Madison areas in numerous BP threads right now - more than I have ever seen in the past. 

When getting new tenants I've found the increase to be much more. 

In 2022 the rents increased 12.1% year over year which was the 3rd highest in the entire country per https://www.axios.com/local/cleveland/2023/02/14/cleveland-rent-prices.

@Matt Schreiber you won't find any Class A or B properties that cashflow - whether SFR or MFR.Price & interest rate increases have made it very difficult - unless you find something off-market BEFORE an agent or wholesaler finds it.

Hey Steven,I’d recommend reaching out to your county assessor to inquire about the increase.

.- Over a 10 year period cashflow will increase as rents increase (rents typically rise faster than property taxes, insurance, etc.)- The property should be appreciating, if purchased in a good location, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- Rents will be paying the mortgage off, increasing the owner's equity/wealth.- If you hold a rental until death, you can pass it on with a stepped-up cost basis, limiting captial gains if then sold (limited by inheritance tax limitations).Too many newbies on this site trying to replace their day job income via "passive" real estate investing w/o digging deep enough to understand how it really works.

The home in mn over 20 yrs averaged 2.8% increase per year.

I will be sure to increase my rice in the future!
