Are there any local websites that folks are using in Houston to advertise or more improbably get responses on their rentals?

But in the mean time over the last 5 months you have been advertising for LO Buyers and letting them know that the property won't be available until the current tenant is out.

If not, where are you supposed to be finding business outside of your own marketing/advertising spend? 

Are you advertising with craigslist /bandit signs/ letters?

I don't think I've bought any off craigslist, but use it plenty to advertise my rentals.

You can try the trades guys who advertise in the Flyer.com.

Which are the best property websites that allow private home sellers to advertise a property for sale?

I would probably avoid that language in the advertisement but then make it clear when an offer is received that the seller does not offer any credits or repairs.

Chris T.While we are not flippers, we do use a similar approach by purchasing tired properties and forcing appreciation: it is just rehab-n-hold as opposed to rehab-n-sell.When we are carrying out a deep retrofit on a newly acquired property, we will put a sign in the yard advertising another "modern, heathy and energy efficient home in the making"  with an indication of when it will be available for rent.We typically have the units rented before the renovation is complete.

They had an advertisement on this site.
