Hi friends!
I just got my first property and put it out for rent. I have 3 people contact me so far but no serious leads. The property is fairly new and well-kept and I am planning to not allow pets (I miss out on a lot of people but the property is also newer/is carpeted).

I was curious about the credit score requirements. Is anything less than 600 risky? Also, is it true that most tenants look out for properties in the summer because that is when their lease expires (more on average)?

Also, in your experience, is paying premium to Zillow or some other service worth it?

Here is the link to my Zillow post:

Hey folks,

Currently own a 1 acre land in the RDU area, NC (at the border of Chapel Hill/Durham, more specifically). Since the housing industry has terrible supply, it is hard to buy apartments in the area. I was wondering if anyone would be able to provide guidance on whether a 2 or 4 unit apartment complex is a feasible investment?

For my builder friends out there, I am also curious about cost per square feet. I am not looking to build anything fancy. Either 1 bedroom or studio apartments.

P.S: The lot is across from an apartment complex. I am currently working the zoning but I hope to not have any issues with it.

TIA!
