If you don't advertise it publicly but offer in private, you don't promise anything.If you do offer the premises for rent publicly, it has to be compliant with Fair Housing law.It's a slow time in rental business and if you never find who are you looking for, are you willing to take on financial losses because of that?

Part of my dismay with the method is that I see A LOT of people advertising that they offer this service.

I hope to continue to get last minute bookingsIt has made started starting to advertise on other platforms.

I usually start advertising for tenants well before we close on our loan. 

Yeah most of the rentals are advertised by property managers especially in big cities.

It's advertised on all of the same sites.

My strategy would be to buy the properties, advertise them as is and sale them.

You can mention the open house, along with your minimum requirements in your online advertisement.

Power of Sale Notice Requirements: Prior to initiating a foreclosure the notice of foreclosure sale must be advertised at least one per day for three (3) days or once per week for two (2) two weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the county in which the property is located.

That does not include debt service, but does include taxes, insurance, advertising, lost rent to to vacancy or non-payment, legal expenses, accounting expenses, capital expenses (roofs, furnaces, etc), and property management.
