Did taxes and insurance really go up so much? How much money towards appliances are you spending on your tenant.
I never quite understood this position.
Is a landlord only allowed to charge rent relative to his mortgage+taxes+insurance+maintenance?
What happens after a mortgage is paid off & the landlord is left with just taxes+insurance+maintenance - is he expected to charge less rent?
Also, why isn't rental income just another stream of income and with the landlord's tuitions etc. going up he needs more income?
