Duplex owner occupied, how to get Good tenants?
I have a duplex and am placing it on the market. It is owner occupied. I have posted my listing but I wonder if I am being too restrictive. I have had people express interest but they want to know the exact address not just a nearby landmark etc. They also want a showing as well, all before I know if they are even prequalified. I am a busy professional so I have limited spare time. I have responded to then usually with something to the effect of “please complete the prequalification application and then we can schedule a viewing.” With this i have not had responses back. The app I use for prequalification is rent redi. I dont enjoy that it makes them sign up for a rent redi account etc. but I am not sure what other options to try. How would a more seasoned duplex owner go about getting a good tenant?
