What's your secret weapon? Do you put something special in your houses?
I read a post a while back where a gentleman highlighted the fact that he'd put one of those natural rainfall shower heads in a unit of his and potential tenants loved the house. Do you have a special item like this?
I recently put a really nice bathroom sink in a unit and it rented in less than a week on the market. It was expensive... originally, but I got it with the leg broken off at the depot for $90 and put it back on. I also usually get Benjamin Moore Manchester Tan paint in huge quantities from Sherwin Williams when it goes on sale for $22/gallon. People seem to really like it. I try to attract a higher quality tenant and usually I hear "This house is so much nicer than the other crap we looked at."
