Trouble leasing a front house/back house

[Jim Robertson]

I have a 3/2 front house and 1/1 back house in North Central San Antonio that I am trying to get leased. The back house is getting lots of showings and a few applications. The front house however is not getting much response. I think I have the rents correct for the neighborhood $1200 and $600. The feedback I am getting from the few showings of the front house is that they are unsure of leasing a house without knowing the back house tenant. Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions (other than lower the price of the front house)? Should I list it as a duplex in my ads?

@Jim Robertson Try promoting it as a 4/3 and specify in your add that the property is a 3/2 Front house and a 1/1 back house. I would have a completely separate add for this. Maybe you get a large family with a grandmother or grandfather that needs the private space.
