trouble getting tenants?

[Account Closed]

Ok here is the issue I am having with my first rental. I have shown it to about 6-7 people but all of them will take the application and not call back ? I am trying to see what may be turning them off, I think the molding around the couple bedrooms is all chipped and may need to be repainted and fixed (if section 8 were to come in they probably would require it) I also know one of the light fixtures looks older on a bedroom maybe replace that? The hardwood flooring has some scruffs and marks but this is a low income area so I didn't think that was much of a concern. The other issue has to be the size. The bedrooms are all around 10x8 so they are tight, but how should I go about getting tenants to want to live here. The other option is to lower the rent a bit more but I feel I am right at market now and have the best price for a 2bedroom on craigslist. Thanks
