A good rule of thumb is to plan a 5% increase in rent every year. If you have great tenants that keep your property in amazing condition, it does bear consideration; is it worth it to you to raise the rent and risk having a less-than-stellar, long-term tenant? There are also costs associated with having vacant properties.

As you can see in the graph in the video above at the 1:00 mark, the trajectory of rents since 1988 has gone consistently upward. Very seldom have we seen dips in rent. Of course, one of the benefits of buying a home is being able to avoid the consistent rise in rental rates.



I recommend setting the appropriate expectation with your clients regarding your yearly rent increase to keep up with the costs of rising insurance and tax rates.



Ultimately, I recommend setting the appropriate expectation with your clients regarding your yearly rent increase to keep up with the costs of rising insurance and tax rates; this measure will make sure that your margin isn’t shrinking as those costs go up.
