How long do your rentals generally stay on the market before finding a tenant? We priced on the higher end of the market but wondering how long to let it sit before reducing?

Can depend on lots of factors, including market, price level, type of neighborhood. Ask some local property managers to get a good idea of what's acceptable.

In my tier two city the limiting factor is how long I need to fix up the unit after they leave and how long I take to get the applications. I never have to wait for applications.

Ladies how do you manage your relationship when your spouse holds you to what you promised you would do before you got married but then you realize you can’t do it.

I told him I can’t do it for that long again but he said “we’ll see, you just need to push through”.

We moved into a 25 year old home recently and inspection was clean. There’s one room downstairs with built in cabinets that we ripped out and patched / repainted, however the non-uniform drywall texture was very obvious so we called drywall repair out to retexture (orange peel look). They spent a day sanding down and retexturing and it looked great, waited 2 days per their instruction and primed / repainted…

Getting ready for a new life adventure in some other city or country. Have a great house in an extremely desirable city. We should probably rent it, gain a little monthly cash, and let the asset grow even more. But part of me says just sell it while it’s high now, and go forth and not have to worry about renters and things breaking etc. Just move on and buy something when we settle. house is paid for. Thoughts?

Would love everyone’s thoughts! Which of these two options would you pick if your goal is to buy and hold for appreciation purposes given these are in a very hot market. Both same lot size.

Option 1:
- $175k lot located on very busy street but across the street from new $700k townhomes and restaurants

Option 2:
- $250k 3 bed/1 bath fixer upper located at end of dead end street, houses on street all fixer uppers, located down the street from Option 1 (so also near new builds and restaurants)
