I have no skill ceiling anymore and can accomplish much more than at my W2 job.

A second suggestion I took from this forum was to raise the rent 5% between each tenant to try to find the market's ceiling.

The ceiling rent is not going to be that much higher because people who are looking for the smallest units are prioritizing cost. 

Water seeped in through the ceiling. 

The next evening their downstairs neighbor came home from work to a water damage in though out his unit and water dripping from his ceiling. 

Also for the leaking ceiling in the kitchen, how do i go about doing this?

The tenant left my property with over $30k in damages (holes in walls, ceiling, floors, bathroom needs to be gutted, broken windows, broken kitchen cabinets, etc).

Affordability provides context for how high the market ceiling is; at the end of the day, prices can only go as high as people can afford to pay, so higher affordability in a market with strong fundamentals suggests room for sustained price appreciation.After crunching the numbers, here are our top twenty markets (of the originally filtered 120) sorted by EMS.

New roof, new flooring throughout, removed popcorn ceilings, 2 new bathrooms, new kitchen, replumbed, new lighting, all new doors and trim and a ton of paint.

A stone F/P floor to ceiling with a 4' opening may be worth 10K or 50K and a gas F/P sheet rocked in with out a mantel might be $1,000 or $1,500.
