If you are a landlord, and you have Jewish tenants who do not let raise their rents, would you sell your property and invest in a less hot area?
I know I need a business advisor, but I’m laying out so much money to cover my mortgages that I barely could pay my own bills.
The house in a Jewish neighborhood went up in value about 50 k per year. My tenants have been there for over 5 years without letting me raise the rent. The expenses of the house have gone up and I lay out money every month. One tenant has ignored the beis din, the other has been pushing me off.
I had enough.
I want to sell everything and invest in a non Jewish area, where the market is not as hot.
Would you do it?

What does that mean- the tenants don’t let you raise the rent?

What does that mean, the tenants don't let you raise the rent? Since when do tenants get to control that?

What do you mean?? The landlord decides how much the rent is. If the tenants don’t pay they can be evicted.

Op, non Jewish tenants give you h*ll in many other ways.
Take the current tenants to court.

Not easy to evict a Jewish tenant

Sorry, phone goes faster than me.
They don’t pay the raise. And don’t leave the house.
I have a way to get good non Jewish tenants . And if the rent is not paid, no beis din involved. A have a few houses like this and it works fine. However, the house I have in a Jewish area went up tremendously. Should I give up such investment ?

Houses in the jewish neighborhoods go up in price more than regular neighborhoods so you are making money just by holding onto the property. The question is if you can afford it.

We own a 2nd apartment and rent to Jewish tenants. We have a lease, prepared by a lawyer, which specifies the rent increase every year. They agreed to this before they moved in.
We live in Israel.
BH our tenants have been paying but if they didn't, we would take it to hotza'ah lapoal which would freeze their bank account. I don't think that exists in the US.

Yep, this is my question. Should I give up holding onto the house in a jewish area?
I did try to reach to one of those organizations who help with finances. So far, nobody has the right coach for me. That’s why I am asking over here. I’m very short with money and a business coach is very expensive.
If anyone could give me an insight, I would really appreciate it.

If it's NYC this won't stand and it will take many years to evict a tenant. I hope you're not in NYC op.

when was the last time you took them to bais din? try again and if they dont listen, bais din will give you permission to go to court. They may get scared of that. I doubt if it makes sense to sell.

If you sell it, will the buyer have to evict the tenants? How will you get them out?
I know so many people who have had this problem, it makes you wonder if it’s worth it to rent out an apartment.

The rental doesn't have to bring you money. It's the sale that brings the money.
If you lose 10k a year you're still growing your investment by 40k!
Its a crazy amount of RIO.
