Finding renters (options besides Furnished Finder)

Maria Matthew
Posted

We have a "duplex" (we have a SFH where we made a unit upstairs and down) and I am having the hardest time finding renters.

1) Does anyone have experience getting in touch with insurance agents who specialize in displaced families from fire etc? I don't know where to start or what to search to get in touch with this type of insurance agent to network with them. 

2) I am realizing maybe we're a little too far from nearby hospitals to be appealing on Furnished Finder, but maybe that's not true, or maybe it's my pricing?.... I would love feedback on my listing if that is the case!

I'd love to get this rented out ASAP, and I appreciate your help. Thank you real estate angels!

ALE Solutions and CRS are the big temp housing agencies that I'm aware of. They have a place on their website you can add your property into their database. Once you get in touch with one of their reps, save their contact info so you can reach out in the future when you have a vacancy.

Definitely list on other sites like Jamie mentioned. We get a lot of MTR bookings from Airbnb. Check your comps on Furnished Finder and Airbnb to see if you're pricing competitively with them.

Good luck!
