It does suck loosing a months rent, but if it gets you a better tenant, you'll be much happier. 

The local laws are loose, and we could dd 2-3 mobile homes on the lot.

And I use that term loosely. 

Loose qualifications are 3X income, 580 Credit Score, No evictions..... 

Also, did some research into the city's plans and they are adding a skytrain that connects some more of the cities together in the next several years, which is bound to increase the property value in time.Purchase price was $480,000Mortgage- $1450Strata - $350Property tax - $120/monthInsurance- $ 55/ month Maintenance (unsure as of now as have no incurred anything)Total monthly payments- $1975Current Rental income - $2150So, cash flow positive.

We get many of our deals because we're handing the listing agent our side of the commission.I was loosing a lot of the best deal in my area because the agents were likely only presenting offers where they would get both sides of the commission.

During normal circumstances, even with good long-term renters, I raise rents annually and I'm not worried about pushing them out because I do so incrementally within the bounds of fair market rents for the respective neighborhoods.

If he says no than I would tell him that I will bring my own buyer's agents and he/she would loose out by 50% of the commission.( that is legal in many places as the sale of said property would have not occure with out the help of this "second" realtor.

The only concern that I give to appreciation is to do my due diligence to confirm that the home is not located in an area that is projected to loose value.

I'm not an expert but I have managed to not loose my shirt on any Real Estate purchase I've made since 1980.
