To maximize monthly cash flow
A thorough reassessment of current rents compared to market rates, up to maximize monthly cash flow, a thorough reassessment of current rents compared to market rates, updated units, and remodeled units can reveal areas where rent adjustments are justified. Here’s a step-by-step approach:
- Market Analysis for Current Rents: Begin by researching local market rents for similar properties. Look at units of comparable size, age, amenities, and location to understand what tenants are paying. This will give you a benchmark to see if your rents are below market average, signaling an opportunity for adjustment.
- Assessment of "As-Is" Units: For units in their current condition, compare them against market rents for properties with similar levels of upkeep. If they’re renting for less than comparable properties, you may consider incremental rent increases. This adjustment can capture additional income without renovation expenses but should remain competitive.
- Updated Units: For units with minor updates, such as fresh paint, new fixtures, or appliances, assess rent rates for comparable “updated” properties in the area. Often, these modest improvements allow for an increase that aligns with a higher quality standard tenants are willing to pay for. Determine the difference between market rents for similar updated units and your current rent to justify an increase.
- Remodeled (or Fully Renovated) Units: For units that have undergone more extensive remodels (e.g., modern kitchens, new flooring, energy-efficient windows), check rates for newly renovated units in your market. These fully upgraded units command higher rents, so analyze local data to price your remodeled units competitively but optimally. This can substantially boost cash flow and justify the upfront rehab investment.
- Cash Flow Projection: Use the potential rent increases from each category—current, updated, and remodeled—to forecast cash flow improvements. This analysis helps in deciding which units to prioritize for updates or remodels based on their potential return and ensures each property maximizes its market potential.
Reassessing rents based on these categories enables a strategic approach to driving income growth, balancing necessary improvements with achievable rent increases.
