If not I’d consider staying with the rental and raising the rent to market rate at lease renewal in May.

That encompasses realistically knowing what the market price of each unit is worth.Second: Stay in great neighborhoods.

Hey thanks for the response and yes i am staying on the other side of a side by side duplex and would like to renovate my side and the other side !

If you are the lone supplier of a specific housing product and there's pent up demand you will absorb your units quicker and have tenant stay longer given the lack of alternatives.

Personally, all of my units are full and have stayed full, no one is even late with rent much less behind, and no one is moving.

Every so often I will look at my listing in private or incognito mode to make sure it's showing up to the general public.Closer to their stay, I text guests (who want it) a guest book that I put together with local restaurants, things to do, parking, etc. 

So just stay out of certain states and you'll be fine.

Most people use their phone and it’s a pain to stay logged in on your phone. 

Even in the off-season - you can optimize visibility by setting competitive pricing, using high-quality photos, and enabling Instant Book with flexible policies.For older listings, try adjusting prices with dynamic tools, highlighting upgrades, and regularly updating your title, photos, or descriptions to stay fresh in search results.These tweaks can make a big difference!

People like you is who I need to stay away from and stay around people who truly want to see others succeed.
