I use them for variable print postcards, but I believe they do envelope mailings too.

Thanks for the replies, I have the mechanics of the lease option (2 years, 3.5% down 'flexible' non-refundable, qualify in 1-2 yrs, rent credit, etc..). It is posted on craigslist every day in the for sale and for rent sections. I'm hesitant to do the local paper as it's around $650/mo. It is in one of the local papers thrifty-nickel, penny-saver, american classifieds genre.
It has only been on the market for a little under 2 weeks. I do understand that this is still very recent. I just want to make sure I have all my bases covered before 2 months pass by and I'm standing there like an idiot waving at cars and pointing to the home dressed in a chicken suit of out shear desperation. It is a townhouse by the way and I know some people don't recommend rent-to-own's on these.
I've had around 15 calls and emails, some which are looking for rentals, some which are section 8, and some which are delirious. 3 showings thus far but no applications yet.

I have a property that I'm trying to sell as a Rent to Own. Does anyone have experience with marketing these effectively? I have a lot of free web postings, some paid websites, local penny-saver, website, and bandit signs. I have two different bandit signs, also wondering if anyone else has good suggestions or alternatives for these. Much thanks!

I would not recommend paying someone hourly, pay them per sign that way you know what you're getting.
If you pay someone minimum wage to put out 50 signs, they're going to make it into a 40 hour work-week to get it done. If you pay them $1.50 per sign they're going to get it done faster and cheaper.
