Citi adds 2 years onto the mfr warranty, but they don't have business cards other than Costco.

I have a property I'm purchasing and I need to raise rent by about $100 to have it decently cash flowing.  

I raise rents every year on every property and average 3-5 years on my rentals(SFRs). if everyone raised rents every year starting 50 years ago rents would be 20k  a month.. not sure how viable rent raises every year are.but to me personally I just like stability and no turn overs..

However, I'm not completely confident in the numbers even at this price.Assuming her 25k net is right and we intend to rent the larger cabin as well, I am thinking we could easily raise that net to 40k, which would be a 10% cap rate. 

. $20k left to pay (in credit card with 0% interest).

Curious how the cards fell for this deal!

So I'm going through my rental property portfolio and raising rents due to proposition 10 and possible rent controls in California... see (no on prop 10 www.noprop10.org)For single family houses:I was wondering what the pros and cons are to paying for utilities?

As we want to scale our fix and flip business and rental portfolio we do want to start raising private capital.

Karen, I won't be attending but I can recommend a tip that could save you thousands of dollars: Leave your credit cards at home.Most of the free / low cost seminars give you a few crumbs of information but are mainly sales presentations designed to "upsell" you on more expensive "boot camps" and/or "mentoring programs".They all follow the same classic sales formula, they'll tell you that it normally costs $X (you can even go on their website and see that price) but "today only" or "only for the first N people to sign up" they're putting on a special deal.They'll do the whole "this is how much it would cost individually but here's an incredible package deal" etc.

So a lot of people just raise their prices, pay the TOT from the amount collected and don't mention it to guests.Competition for STRs is getting pretty fierce these days.
