No Vacancies

I have never understood why landlords would let their units sit vacant.  We do what it takes to turn units over in between tenants.  If the price is to high we would lower after a week or two of advertising.  Lower $25 a month is better than losing and entire month of rent. 

Hire out help if you need to make repairs, clean, touchups etc.  I can understand if a unit needs an entire renovation but other than that do what it takes to fill your apartments.  Think out side the box..... We have even turned to Airbnb to fill a month that didn't look promising.
