Value-add from increasing NOI through various methods of increasing income (below market rents, rehab and increase rents, RUBS, etc) or decreasing expenses.

Funny running into you here and , at first I had a tough time understanding all that mambo jambo about a BBB lady, and was like huh!!! 

The other half say "OMG that is awesome you lucky monkey".The funny thing is that everyone that tells me I am lucky owns a couple of thee (it is a row of ton houses), and are eager to find the owners of the other abandoned ones.That is what gives me courage to be honest.

In California the property tax is based upon the purchase price, so lowering the PP will permanently decrease you annual expenses (thus will increase your cash flow permanently).

And the funny thing is...most of the time its the folks who are 3 months behind on the rent or invited 10 other people to live with them...so they set out on a mission because they think we are the bad guys !!! 

The last time the house sold was back in 2010 for ~144k. 3 family house in question has its issues(older home, older heating systems probably)  but I would like to own it as it would: 1. eliminate my driveway/snowplowing issues 2. add to rental portfolio 3 increase monthly income 4.

I am still able to spend energy marketing and lead generating, hopefully I can increase my passive marketing budget.

I am motivated to learn, hustle, increase my income, and abundantly provide for my family.Goals:-Educate myself.

I would also not run performa's on increasing rent every year that will all but gurantee vacancies.

I am currently looking at whether I should increase the rent or not.
