Tenant Search for 2 fam in JC
Hello BP,
Looking to close on a 2 family in JC this month. We are going to be owner-occupied this property. Wondering how you guys look for tenants? Any recommended agents or PM who can rent out my other unit?
Thanks in advance.

Hey!
Do you plan on doing long-term rentals?
Do you plan on self managing or hiring a property management team?
If self-managing, there are plenty of softwares out there i.e. Stessa, RentRedi, Avail, Tenant Cloud, etc. that make it superrrr easy!
If you're hiring a property manager, then they should help place a potential tenant for you. I'd make sure to have a clear cut criteria of the tenant you want in the property to help direct the PM company.
I spoke with another investor that uses a real estate agent in New Jersey to help place her long-term tenants. I guess it is more of a thing in that state. In NC, that doesn't seem to be something agents do frequently.
Good luck with your house hack Hayan!
