How long does it take you to rent a unit?

I’ve got a single family house listed now for 14 days. It’s a newly rehabbed house. I’m getting about 120 views per day on Zillow, 60 inquiries, and I’ve done 12 showings so far, with another 6 already scheduled for this Saturday (I’m doing limited showings due to Covid and a busy day job).

The home is a 4 bed, 2 bath in Worcester, MA. Interested parties have been everything from college groups to young professionals to established families. Feedback has been great about how the house looks, but no one has applied yet...

Question is... 14 days in, should I be worried at this point? Should I lower the asking price? I’m aiming for a June 1st tenant at this point.

Thanks in advance for any and all feedback!

Update: Got this rented in 20 days. I was only showing on Saturdays due to Covid-19 and a busy work schedule. 18 showings and over three days got the job done.
