This comes down to thee Golden Rule. 

Otherwise, a general rule of thumb is during the spring or fall so that the weather is optimal, as you've identified above.I'd recommend calling a few different realtors in the area and ask their opinion.

In addition to the 7 federal classes, this state adds:Public Assistance (Sec. 8, welfare, SSI, TANF, etc), Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity and Expression (including transgender), Marital Status, Military or Veteran Status, Age (except 55+ communities) and AncestryYou can discriminate against non-protected classes, like illegal drug users - but if it has a disparate impact on a protected class, it still may be subject to challenge.If your unit is not de-leaded, you can still not refuse to rent to a family with kids under 6 years of age.

This is not locked out because I forgot my password it was because my identity needs to be verified.

Check the local zoning rules.

I’ve heard as a general rule it’s best to rent if you plan on moving within a couple of years, which makes sense because of costs associated with buying/selling a property.

In the Cleveland market, I always use the 50% of gross rent rule. 

Another thing is that most any of the properties that I find will barely make the 1% rule and I have yet to find one at 2% or one that each door will cash flow at $200 as suggested, at least on a 15 year note.  

@Jason ClarkeAs a general rule, in NJ, areas with good school districts have lower cash on cash return because they are desirable places for families to live.Less desirable places command a higher Cap rate which translate into high CoC depending on the level of your investment.So a combination of good school district and solid cash on cash return is hard to find, in NJ.

I don't have good 'rule of thumbs' for you there on a per unit (for instance per foot) cost.
