Is Zillow Rental Listing "Stale" After 35-40 Days?

[Tricia O'Brien]

I have a vacant single-family home listed for rent on Zillow and my realtor, who is doing a tenant placement service for me, gets inquiries through Zillow Rental Manager.  I've done 2 small price reductions since it was listed 40 days ago but have only had 4 showings and 2 completed applications in those 40 days.   I've also recently reduced the minimum credit score to qualify from 650 to 600 a few days ago. 

One thing I would like to try to generate more "buzz" and more applications is to have my realtor take it off Zillow for 1-2 days, then re-list it.  I was thinking this should wipe out the thing on Zillow that states "108 contacts, 40 days listed."

Then it might get a lot of new views because people will think it's a new listing.  Do potential tenants think, "There must be something wrong with it if it's been on the market for more than a month and not been rented yet"?  Do you think this technique would cause Zillow to put the # of days listed at 0 when it first gets re-listed?

Lots of people have inquired, but they usually don't fill out the realtor's Google questionnaire or don't send in current paystubs (he won't schedule a showing without these 2 things in place) or they do not meet the minimum requirements for income and/or credit score.

Any replies would be appreciated!
