Any downside to offering this?

[Jason Krawitz]

I'm considering e-mailing this to my new tenants. Any thoughts or reasons why I shouldn't? Thanks!

"As I am preparing the lease I recalled Chris mentioning you plan to live in the home for longer than the 15 month lease term. Your application says 1-3 years. Do you have any interest in signing a longer lease? I wouldn't normally offer this but you are the exact kind of tenants I'd love to work with long term. If you're interested in a 36 month lease, I would give consideration to accepting an average rent of $1550 with the first 15 months at the $1595 rate and the balance of the lease at a lower rate to make the average $1550.

For example, if you wanted to sign a 36 month lease, the first 15 months would be $1595 each and the last 21 months would be $1517.85 each.

It that doesn't interest you I completely understand but it's something that might be mutually beneficial if you plan to live in the home longer term."
