How does everyone handle rent increases with new home purchase, with existing tenants?

Are you consistently following up with the marketing campaign?

I've also thought about reaching out to one of these major portfolio lenders and putting everything on more fixed long-term debt to increase my cash flow, but I like the idea of paying everything off in 15 years. 

Since I will be moving in 2 years, I'm already planning on increasing the value of my primary residence through forced appreciation and hopefully rent it out over what I'm paying monthly for mortgage payments.I'm exploring the idea of using home equity loans and HELOCs to pay for my next house, but I'm interested in hearing what methods other military members have had success with.

The downstairs is a small grocery bringing in $1000 per month with a scheduled $100 increase each year until it reaches $1300.

Now this was two years ago, and the rent has gone up to $1250 with 2 of the 3 students staying with the house and splitting the rent even with the price increase.

Here are the properties that have interested me (not sure if either are section 8):Duplex built in 2002 consisting of 3/2 1050sq/ft each for $94,900Currently both units occupied with $670/month leases (not sure of the lease terms).New roof in 2015, new Central A/C units in 2013 and 2015.Outside looks good, inside looks clean with decent kitchens (basic L shaped) with laminate counters, tile floor in kitchens, what looks to be berber carpeting everywhere else.

Because once you stabilize the property, you will have created massive equity and drastically increased the cash flow.It takes anywhere from 6 months to 24 months to stabilize a property.

You need to figure out what the market rate is, and for sure with every vacancy increase to the market rent rate.

Hello everyone,I know for determining ARVs it depends on a variety of factors (area, neighborhood, condition, comps, etc) but from what you've noticed in your own personal deals and the final appraisal what are some things within your control generally to increase ARVs?
