As for not feeling like it's the right time, I would urge you to focus more on the goals than your feelings. 

Context matters: for some apartment buildings that compete head to head with a very similar property just down the street, this may be a good strategy.We rent premium single family homes and I have never offered an incentive.

Feel for you and your neighbors.

Quote from @Ila Darafshandar: A friend of mine recently bought a 7-unit apartment in San Diego.

Four of the DSTs are student housing in Reno, Austin, Alabama and Louisiana and two are apartments in San Diego and Houston.

Feel free to connect, and best of luck

Hi Caleb,Welcome to the Bigger Pockets Forum and if you ever have any quetions feel free to reach out. 

Trying to get a split level (not a lot of sqft) on the market in the next three weeks and trying to decide on whether to open the wall between the dining and living room for a feel of openness or leave it as I have heard from two interior designers that the open concept is on the way out as we are more at home and liking our separate areas in the home.Pragmatically speaking the opening of the wall will be mostly a time drain with it being a load bearing wall and having to support the ceiling while rebuilding and all the drywalling necessary.

Feel free to reach out if you have any specific questions about the area.

A property manager may be a hard egg to crack but once cracked (built trust or relationship), they can open many doors since they can be your advocate and have access to many homes.this is the case with apartment complexes.
