The key lesson is that if you rent to Section 8 tenants, their negative behaviors may result in non-Section 8 tenants to leave.Rent increases are more likely tied to the minimum wage.

Each market is different but as a national average, the increasing rates have increased the inventory.

Quote from @Rich Davis: I know there have been posts regarding the ever increasing cost of insurance.  

Is there a way to increase the cash flow from those?

I know taxes and insurance have gone up a lot in that time so I understand that problem but the solid rent increases in that time have been able to cover most of that (at least for me it has worked out).

I'd have to do some research on the local market to know if this would meaningfully increase the value and the appeal as a rental in the long-term.
