If you are getting several calls a week, you are probably about right.If you are showing the property and not getting applications, there is a problem with your property in comparison to competition or your rent is too high.

That latest statistic is totally useless in your comparison because you don't tell us 1) what the poverty rate is in Mexico and Belize and 2) what the increase in poverty in Belize was over last year.Regarding the increase in poverty rate in Mexico last year, I don't know if it's 44% but I know it has increased. 44% looks like a lot but it's entirely possible because it's due to Covid, which you could have figured out.

It's just a comparison metric to boil down net income vs price.

Philly with the flat roofs and smaller properties in the city can have low expenses in comparison to the rent.

It's only a matter of time before an enthusiastic newbie, brokers a note in a state with out proper licensing, and the Attorney General want to make an example out of them & devastate them financially with legal expenses & fines.The other eventual disaster is going to be when a borrower contests a foreclosure or collection effort & it is revealed that the newbie investor doesn't posses the proper licensing for servicing, or there is a flaw with procedure or assignment sequence & the legal fees will start to mount or the note end up being worthless.

@Edward Burns in some cases it is not about increasing rent but about letting them know the value of an included service in comparison to other properties.
