Rent increase rules depend largely on A) The terms of the lease and B) any local rules or regulations.

@LaTrell Ray - Several high profile, multi year, VC backed rental arbitrage companies recently went bankrupt because they couldn’t weather the storm of covid and/or other industry forces including increased local taxes and regulation (licensing, crack downs on zoning violations for stays less than 30 days).

I get it that we are in a Covid induced environment and we are all working from home.... but how can you possibly think that is a positive image that gives the audience comfort?

Lots and lots of regulation.

You can try a fan in a window for a few days to cycle outside air through the basement to lower the humidity, but in GA's already humid environment, that's not likely to help much.

It is in "everyones" (but especially the banks) interest for the property to not end up as an REO, the investor does the hard work of negotiating with the bank and many many many realtors will not even show a property listed as pending short sale, banks are making an informed big boy decision regarding the short sale offer versus their likely net going through foreclosure, there is NO fiduciary responsibility to the lender (this argument baffles me), the only deals closing are FULLY disclosed, and national title companies would not be closing them (especially in this environment) if they are illegal or heaven forbid that "F" word FRADULENT.

The hot water steamed walls and ceiling and was perfect environ for mold growth,,,,and tenant didnt say a word.Mostly because they had 15 people staying in a 1 bedroom SMALL house,,,running a hotel of sorts.

If you're trying to raise money from Chinese investors you should check into Regulation S.

But in the environment today, my guess is there is much less inventory in your area and they aren't desperate for offers.

Yes there are rules and regulations.
