too many good applicants

[Tyrel Templar]

Hey BP,

I advertised a property that will be available in two weeks. I think i may have under priced the house. I have had over 50 interested parties. I expect at least half of them will come to showings. If i have several qualified applicants, can I ask which one will pay more rent. I am thinking of asking at the showing "What is the maximum amount of rent you would be willing to pay in the event you are one of two equally qualified applicants?" Or should I increase the rent in the ad and let the potential tenants know when i start to schedule showings?
