Alyssa,You can’t raise rents in the middle of the lease, but you could inquire if they are interested in moving before the lease expires, who knows, maybe they wanted to move anyway, then you could test the market with increased rents. 

@ROLAND BARBEITO Without knowing the specifics of your deal, have you tried inquiring about owner-financing i.e. where the seller carries the note for you?

For those receiving the leads...they dont even care if the lead is inquiring about a property that is already sold, because the value to the agent is in the lead, not in them being interested in a particular property.I think agents that do not like Zillow, do not like it because their accuracy is questionable. 

That will definitely be something to inquire about and keep in my mind.

I’ve received around 140 inquires on a unit that will be available Dec 1st!

Would you knock on their door and inquire if they were interested in selling.

To add - Ask if it's been flooded or in a flood zone, question why there are any vacant units (if any), and inquire about the foundation.

So this is a suggestion to inquire about flooding where-ever you're interested. 

I have not walked the property, only drove by the location so I can not speak to some of those vital questions that you inquired, but the location is really good, and the structure from the street seems solid, with a newer looking roof on one of the units. 

Go on Craiglist and inquire to a few people about long term leases, see what they charge you.
