listing a house for rent above market estimates

[Tom R.]

I've just listed my first investment property for rent. Zillow and Truilla estimate the rent to be $950 but I put it at $980 because it is a fresh remodel and has all new appliances, flooring and energy efficient windows. My realtor said I could get $1000 for it but I felt that would be pushing it. I hadn't expected the sites to put their estimates right next to my price. I'm worried that this might scare away some applicants.

Does anyone have any experience with this?
