Tactics to make your rental stand out?
Hey BiggerPocket Folks-
I need your expertise! Does anyone have any creative good tactics to draw traffic to a rental? I created a great looking Postlet, which is syndicated out to Zillow, Trulia, Hot Pads, etc and it is on Craigslist and I regularly refresh it there. I have decent pics and the place is spotless. It's in an upscale townhome community in one of the best neighborhoods in Greensboro, Starmount Forest. It's been listed for 50 something days, been available since September 1 and I want to attract a (well-qualified) tenant asap (don't we all, right?). Here is the listing http://www.postlets.com/rtpb/9612467
I need help with two main questions but I welcome any other feedback as well (suggestions on the listing, price feedback etc):
1) Is there any other effective marketing I should/could be doing?
2) Should I offer some sort of deal to attract folks...$300 off first months rent, $300 Best Buy Gift Card, anything like that, and if so, what?
Any tips are greatly appreciated!
Tina
