Reduced rent for longer lease terms?

[Mark Douglas]

I usually do a 1 year lease, but I have a vacancy I'm getting ready to fill, and I'm tossing around the idea of offering a slightly discounted rent with a two year lease. 

I've heard that if you offer a great property with great customer service, it doesn't really matter how long the lease is, but it would be nice to anticipate longer stays...?  I don't want to seem like I'm trapping someone in a lease though.
