Anyone offering bidding for rent?

[Kyle N.]

Hello friends!

The rental market in my area is in high demand, and I will be putting my first home up for rent in the next few weeks. I was wondering if anyone ever offered a bid for rent? My property manager said rent for the house would likely be $1,600‐$1,700.... I had the idea of putting it on the market at a starting bid of $1,500 and all offers need to be in by xx/xx/xxxx. I mentioned it to my property manager and she said that's not how it works... Has anyone tried this before, or have any thoughts on the idea?
