Tenant trying to coach me on how to advertise
Dear Fellow members,
I have this tenant who wants to terminate his lease after only 3 months into his one year lease. I understand that landlords have a duty to mitigate damages. But the tenant is telling me the following. I am seeking your valuable input on how to reply to him. He is criticizing my method of advertising, unsolicited;
"Could you guys could put up pictures of the unit online so prospective tenants are more likely to inquire. Looking at the unit online all there is is a picture of the back of the house, nothing with the unit at all. I think these are necessary for a good faith attempt at advertising. I have some I can send as well if need be. I want there to be adequate resources and time to find a new tenant."
He had asked for a link to our ad and I sent him a link to one of the many ads that we have running.I haven't inquired with him on what efforts he is making to get that apartment re-rented.
