Hunter Duplantis Concerns with market rates and what I should charge for rent
18 February 2025 | 12 replies
@Hunter Duplantis what @Gino Barbaro said is exactly what I was going to suggest.When you have vacancy is the time to experiment and apply your original thesis.I’m not trying to play Monday quarterback here but, you should be highly confident in where the rents should be well in advance of having a vacancy.That being said, after confirming competition rents on websites (I’d also recommend Craigslist and Facebook marketplace), you should be in alignment there.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.
