But based on my calculation, it doesn't look like increasing rent at this stage is a good business decision. 

As a person who is also in the beginning stage of investing, I would love to connect and share some knowledge!

I'm in the ATL/GA market as well and I am also in the beginning stages of learning the craft of wholesaling.

I am open to perhaps collaborating with you so maybe we can prime ourselves out of our paralysis stage.

How long have you had the properties and are you currently in a growth phase where you want to acquire more properties or are you in a stage where you want to focus  on paying them off and having stable income, for example have you already paid 15 years and want them paid off in 15 years because you plan to retire at that stage?  

Contractors, trades, staging, cleaning, landscaping, painters escrow, attorneys,etc. 

Even the nice neighborhood across the street from mine goes for more than mine, but it has a neighborhood pool and seems to be really popular with young families who want to be a little closer to the elementary school. 

I don't mind helping you find/select a tenant when you are in that stage of the process.
