interview property management and waitlist

[John S.]

Hi all, 

I was interviewing different property management companies since I am investing in a new area and I believe I found the right one. He mentioned that we should point signs up with his company so they can gather a waitlist when a tenant moves out. I actually this is a very nice idea and I know this isn't new but it is to me! So, I was wondering, is that something you guys use in your interviews with property management? I assume this technique will only work in areas with 2+ units though. It would seem strange to have a property management sign in a nice SFH neighborhood.
