hi sifus.

would like to seek your kind advices regarding this.

I have a tenanted house that have been rented for 3 years now. The tenant is good and have good payment record.

However, sometimes I do wonder about how is my house condition since it has been 3 years. I also rarely visit the area since i'm quite busy most of the time.

1) How do I go around this? Can I ask tenant to give photo of the house or can I schedule for an inspection of sorts? any experienced ppl can share how do you do so? With all the cases of bad tenants these days, I do feel a bit of paranoid.

2) also, what is the best way to raise the rental fee? pretext by adding some furnitures / etc? or just raise it during contract renewal? Actually i'm renting them below market rate which is quite cheap considering the area, but since the OPR has risen dramatically over these few years, I was thinking to raise some of the fees to cover my bank payments. what is the best way to go around it?
appreciate any advices

TQ
