Overall the market continues to to have 94-95% occupancy, although that is down percentage point or so from last year.  

Depending on the town, I may be able to get enough info on the features of the home to work up the estimate.

We added a patio slider door and created a deck, I always like to do this because it is relatively inexpensive, however is a great selling feature.

My town is land locked with not a lot of options for building, but the area continues to grow. 

Pittsburgh certainly is a city on the rise due in part to the technology boom in our area, a strong established healthcare system, A Mayor and our County Executive who are very proactive on their initiatives that are attracting big businesses, a strong recovering economy and the continuation of new construction. 

You could argue the the activity is not regular and continuous enough in order to be considered a trade or business, so it would be a capital gain.

Selling this house will be difficult in the future, so continue on as a rental.

For example, if you are going to focus on Google Adwords, you have ads and are continually running optimization tests, you have all keywords setup (including negative keywords!) 

The market rent has increased over $100/month but we raise our continued tenants less than that but the value adds have had rent increase so substantial that overall our rents are up over $100/month per unit for each of the last 5 years. 

I have inherited tenant which I will continue untill lease expires.
