In the past week my smoky mountain cabins have filled up so fast I’ve raised my rates 3 times.

If you think the value will likely be raised by 25% after you buy, I'd multiply the current rate by .25 to get in the ballpark #s. 

So after paid down massive debts and raising two kiddos and one more on the way.

I am especially keen on understanding how to execute a fix-and-flip with as little personal money as possible, including how to raise local capital and having an airtight analysis.I look forward to connecting with people!

It will very likely raise eyebrows in underwriting.

If he raised money for Project A and invested in B then he wasn't using the proceeds for what he said.  

For BRRRR specifically, we ensure the property still cash flows even after the new appraisal and thus, raising annual property taxes.

And I've felt constrained by the limits on my ability to raise rent (market is a bit higher than what Section 8 will pay).

Are there legal reasons not to give a reason for raising rent?   

You raise the rents and expenses stays the same - it’s worth more.
