Hi Mike,I'm a local Sonoma County Agent and a Bigger Pockets Featured Agent.

Research your competition to see what amenities they offer and look for opportunities to add or improve upon these features to make your listing more attractive.

Thanks all.Yes, my tenants will cover the appliances according to my new contract; it will be up to me to see if the tenant is worthwhile to pitch in.I actually already have this clause but I will tighten it up a bit.It may look silly but the new appliances are so expensive I am not willing to buy premium appliances every 5 years for my A class properties. 

An additional benefit of a detailed engineering-based Cost Segregation Study is that it can increase potential insurance premium savings as well as provide support for the property tax appeals process.

I'd probably try FB marketplace first and see how it goes, then if that doesn't help look for a good advertising platform like buildium (which is probably too robust of a tool for what you need right now, but something with just that advertising feature).  

They pay a premium to not be in apartment living.  

I will say though with this last renewal period some insurers are actually starting to lower their premiums… a little, after the Florida legislature made policy changes that favored the insurance companies… so that is at least a small step forward.  

In other works I will negotiate the deals not listing agent and I will pay the Buyers agent a premium  probably 3 to 6%  I have had very good luck over the years moving harder to sell inventory when i boost the buying agents commish.

Part of your prepaids and reserves should have been 2 months of tax and insurance escrow paid in at closing, in addition to collecting the annual insurance premium and expected taxes due for the year in which you closed.

Congrats on the property and it has some really cool features.
