Finding a tenant

[N/A N/A]

Hello,

I just bought a house in the southwest suburbs of Chicago. 3 BD, 1.5 bath, immaculate. However, i've only gotten ONE call in about a month. Advertising in 2 papers, MLS, and on a rental house website. Is there anything else i can do? this is a really nice house, which I think would rent if people would just come take a look at it.

Help! any advice welcome!

Just remembered another idea. I was in line at the city housing department turning in a landlord package when I notice this ambitious landlord. He was passing out flyers of his property to individuals who were there meeting with counselors/applying for housing benefits. I though wow....I like the idea of going after tenants rather than waiting for them to come to you.

Anyway, pass out flyers at Section 8 or the local housing authority.
