@Patrick Walthall. I've been fortunate, all my vacancies have been filled rather quickly. I always strive for best looking property, and competitive pricing. I would rather have it occupied at XX dollars rather than vacant at XXX dollars. 

I did have one in 2017 Vacant for 45 Days, (June 30 - August 15) but I was in process of updating during that time. Probably could have Leased beginning August but house wasn't ready. 

I'm all for the increasing jobs and leasing all during the year.
