As others have mentioned, state and local laws, in combination with the terms of the existing lease, will determine the necessary notice period and whether there is a limit on your rent increase. 

I use a combination of Zillow, Redfin, and FindCompsNow and I find them to be missing a small peices of data some times.  

AllWe have a contract on our first home to start flipping, (exciting) from asking around we have received different answers to our question, "what insurance should we carry for flipping homes".We have received the following, Builders Risk, Liability, Home owners and few others, should we carry one, all or a combination.

my first thought was "awesome they are finally here" when I got that email and then "oh crap I do t have enough money at the moment to buy it" followed by "he's giving us 10 days to get the package sweet!"  

The entitlements, however, may cost 10s of thousands.Once there's interest, things can be adapted to fit whatever tenants want, for instance combining two pads with 2000sf restaurants into one pad for a 4500sf restaurant.

Then there would be an advantage in being able to have "spun off" a portion as investment and combine the two.  

@Reese Thompson, that would have scared the crap out of me and got me thinking the credit was stolen. 

Just couldn't justify the $200/mo at the time I reviewed it.There are a lot of other options out there such as Buildium that might suit your needs.I currently own/manage 31 units and use a combination of Excel, Google Drive, OneNote and probably a few other freeware programs.  

So far I think my plans are to do a combination of buy and hold multi family rentals, and possibly a few multi family fix and flips when that type of deal is there.  

When the Asian buyers interests move elsewhere combined with an adjustment in the Canada market Vancouver will be the hardest hit.
