Many of us can attest to the fact that short sales usually have many competitors and dealing with the bank is no cake walk.

I also highly recommend installing a camera (I use Foscam PTZ's, which I can view via my iPhone)... place one outside your front door and you can have a set of ears and eyes at your property.There are options for management such as "Pillow" which I have not personally utilized since they're somewhat of a competitor of ours, but they may be available in your area, and handle most of the overhead including cleaning of the unit.3.)

Maybe even add a few photos of waiting lines at their competitors on a typical Friday night.

Online, you're going to get a better click-through-rate when your domain is sitting next to your competitors domain, and your domain clearly states what you do.Also when Google reps say "doing XYZ won't benefit your SEO", consider the source.

For example adding onsite parking if all your competitors already have one, or taming a jungle that makes the property look uncared for.3.

Rentometer, Comparable properties on CL, Zillow competitors, etc.

Jerry Powers I have a pro account as well, but they do not give me 5% off because of that :))) but they give me discounts when I use HD credit card or competitors coupons By the way as a member of a local REI group we have 20% off for all painting in HD and 40% off at Sherwin-Williams paint.

Called my future competitors and found the same results!

From that, they would be essentially creating a competitor in me.
