Hi! My name is Paige. My husband and I are new to real estate investing. We live in Northwest Arkansas. So far we have purchased 1 property in this area and plan to purchase more. Excited to be a part of Bigger Pockets!

My husband and I bought our first rental property in Bentonville, AR over the summer. It took several months to remodel. We listed the property almost 4 weeks ago. Initially, we priced too high, but have lowered the price. The median rental price is $1300 in our area. Currently it is listed at $1275. Deposit $1275 and pet fee of $250. It is walking distance to an elementary, middle and high school. Less than 2 miles from the Wal-Mart home office.

We have it listed on TurboTenant and Facebook market place. We've had a ton of interest and show it almost daily, however, it has not been leased yet.  We are new to this. Is this typical? Any suggestions?
