But like all good booms, when they end and the music stops, then we have a correction. 

Now, the easiest time to find a tenant will depend on where you are and to whom you are renting.viz.1) In our student properties (University town), the "big" months for commencing of new leases are May and September ... though there is a smaller "blip" in January at the beginning of the second semester.2) In our "family" units tend, leases tend to start in July or August - when the kids are out of school.3) For those properties in Québec, most folks play musical apartments on Moving Day /Fête du déménagement (July 01)

Within the last 12 months, he's thrown loud annoying parties that have driven another tenant to service notice (where said departing tenant stated that annoying tenant is the reason why), been physically intimidating (not touching, just violating personal space) to my property manager to the point of her quitting, violating lease terms by keeping a pet and refusing to get rid of it after being served notice, and breaking into a locked free-standing storage shed to store his own items inside and listen to music with friends without my permission.Hired a lawyer (who I am slowly coming to realize, despite strong online/avvo.com reviews, may be not great since he is not super-great at forewarning/forearming me), and we are in the thick of it, with filings, answers, and summary judgement notices.

- Get rid of all personal items and all family pictures (just neutral furniture and accessories)- Turn on lights before every showing- Open blinds before every showing- Create a flyer with all positive attributes of the house/neighborhood/area/etc- Make sure it smells nice- Paint your front door (it's the first thing the buyer will notice of the "interior"- Leave on a stereo or iPod with speakers playing some soothing/popular music

My wife and I now listen to the BP podcasts instead of music whenever we have a decent drive in head of us.

I am a 21 year old graduate student at the Berklee college of music campus in Valencia, Spain.

My husband owns a music school in Westchester County and has been researching locations in Bergen to open another one.

Musical chairs comes to mind.  

More on this later.c) Make sure I have clipboards and pens.d) Make sure I have a blank sample of a lease (its required in my area to have this available to applicants before they fill out an application).e) Business cardsBefore the Showinga) If it's my first showing, I'll arrive a while before hand to set up the showing items.Visual - shower curtain liner, towels and hand soap in the bathroom, vases of fake flowers around the place in pleasant colors.Auditory - I use Pandora radio to play classical music at a soft volume.Olfactory - I place Air Wick air fresheners in apple cinnamon scent in one or two places in the unit.If it's not my first showing, I will have left these items there so I don't need to do this step more than once.b) Sweep, vacuum, or mop.
