Procrastinating with my Rental

[Jacob Rivera]

Hello everyone, I could use some help on how to get my rental out there & starting the search for a new quality tenant.

I am currently house hacking a duplex in a desirable school district in Rochester, Ny. I inherited a tenant, an amazing tenant, but they're moving to another city. They should be all moved out Sept. 8 and I do have some updates to complete once they're out. Mainly replacing the old carpet, old bathtub walls & installibg lau dry hookups.

I hope to have a new tenant in it by Oct. 1st the absolute latest. Its a small 2bed 1Ba, and rent will be more than likely be in the median range for rent in the area. I know Im behind the 8ball but whatshould my next steps be?? In terms of advertising the unit & starting my tenant screening process?

Thank you

Make a system for this so the steps are automatic next time this come up.

Do you have pics of the unit already? Advertise now on all the free listing sites mentioned by @Karl B.

As far as screening goes, you can use a (free) site like cozy or tenant cloud, or BP has a couple providers they work with as well to screen.

Good Luck!
