Marketing bottom end rentals?

[Casey S.]

Does anyone have any tips for getting tenants in your bottom end property's? I have a 4plex that is a low C class property. HUD tenants make up about 50%. Ive had it for about 8-9 months now and have only had one vacancy which was quickly filled with one of the other tenants family members. I now have two empty units and Im not getting much interest on them. Craigslist doesn't seem to do much because I assume most of that class of tenant doesn't cruise the internet. Signs out front seem to make their way down faster than they go up. Should I pay for an ad in the local home town shopper? Any ideas?

Put signs inside the windows.
