If you raise the rent every year, do you always need to fix something small on the property to justify you raising the rent or every other year you dont have to improve something and just tell tenant raising rent for the cost of living or property taxes or insurance that went up.

Burleson is booming, Cleburne is on its way with the new toll road making access easier to downtown FTW. 10 of my rentals are in JCO, they perform as well as any other.

Unless stated in the contract somewhere (which based on your post I'm assuming it isn't) the seller has no requirement to extend and, since you are the party that is unable to perform under the current contract there is probably nothing you can really sue him for (this is not legal advice, just an opinion).

Like I said, I’ve made a few improvements on the house. 1).

It isn’t enough for landlords to improve the properties bring them back to life and lifting up the area .

Always something to consider for future improved cashflow. 

So ultimately I can't claim an aggregate 199A benefit on the gross total from my income generating properties alone, I will need to perform a net calc across all 199A eligible properties.Feel free to correct me, I haven't reviewed the latest and the greatest on this provision.

This property will eventually appreciate as the rest of the neighborhood continues to improve. 

I basically require validation of strategy and suggestion of improvements or  viable alternative approaches. 

Another great resource is the Milken Institute and their Best Performing Cities Report.
