Struggling to find tenants Kenosha

Evelyn V.
Posted

Hello,

I bought my first home in Kenosha Wisconsin a few months ago and have fixed them up to be rented out. I have listed the upper unit for rent 2 months ago and the lower unit 1.5 months ago, I am wondering if anyone has advice on what I should do differently? The upper unit is listed for $1400/mo, and the lower is listed at $1300/mo, previously lowered from $1350. Water is included, there are washer/dryer hookups in the basement, and no pets are allowed. Security deposit is $2000.
So far the upper unit has 135 contacts.
The lower unit has had 50 contacts. (Zillow data)
I've been doing open houses for an hour twice a month, and have had 4 applications so far from people who went. Should I contact a property manager?

There are a lot of things to consider, I'm unsure if this is normal for this time of year - other experiences and insight from local investors would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks.
