What you want to do is discover a visceral (guttural) need, and then fill it.For instance, "Tired of Losing XXX, 5 Ways to Avoid These Noobie Mistakes!"

Eg: time left on lease; ability to repurpose building.3)Capital improvements: When I see a property that ‘underwent extensive renovations’ during what appears to be the middle of the existing lease, who paid for it?

For instance If you live in it.

For instance, I know that a full gut and remodel including new toilet, new vanity, mirror, sink, glass door enclosure, stone/tile on shower walls, etc will run me $2500 per bathroom.

You need motivated sellers for subject-to purchases to work well in most instances.

--for instance, you can learn how to analyze a property's financials via podcasts, articles, etc.Second is "the physical assessment" (which includes all of the things that CAN'T be easily conveyed on paper or on a computer--these are things that often require a skilled in-person assessment of the property and neighborhood).

I have extensively tried to see how the property I am looking at would not work financially short term and long term but have not been able to.

My question is: In these instances, are landlords raising rents to meet the market (again where justified) without worrying that it will create turnover or do most approach it with a phased increase to lessen the burden to tenants and decrease the risk of vacancy?

@Joshua Carter a SIGNIFICANT portion of my due diligence and inspection process requires the utilities to be on.For instance, I run all plumbing extensively to check for leaks, I ensure that appliances are functioning correctly, I check all lights and electrical outlets for functionality & ground, we check the fuse boxes for functionality & condition, we assess the performance of furnace & AC systems, and water heaters, we check the functionality & safety of the gas lines, scope the sewer main and assess water flow, test for radon & meth contamination, and basically give the entire property a thorough "test drive"  --which isn't possible if the utilities are off.
