RE: Raising Rent
Many state have a requirement and it is usually a percentage maximum you would want to check with your local court or real estate attorney.

Check your own states laws. I usually raise rent by $25 per year right now. I will lower rent if it helps retain a good tenant. This all depends on the market. I always try to research what other properties in the area are going for to be more educated.
