I have a potential listing for a lakefront home that was built in the late 60's and hasn't had much attention other than an addition in the 80's.The lake view and frontage are definitely the highlights of the property with the house itself being more challenging.What are some marketing techniques you have used for "unique" properties with success?

On a side note, how do I highlight your names in the response using the "@" symbol???

For example, instead of having the tenant pay all utilities, maybe you pay the water, highlight this in you advertising, and then figure out a way to pass this cost on to your tenant (via higher rent amount, pet fees, etc.). 

While many highlight the cons of HOA fees and potential single assessment charges, here are the pros that we encountered:-Everything was easy to replace, standard size appliances and cabinets.

@Raymond Hooks There are few points i would like to highlight for you.1. $25K is relatively low investment, most "established " Syndicators would expect minimum $50k.

The buyer's home inspector also highlighted about 2 dozen deficient areas where the roofer performed substandard work.In a more positive light, he seems like he's working to fix it fast, now that his license is on the line.I think you're right, I suppose I did get what I paid for @Manolo D. what a nightmare this is turning out to be. 

I also try to highlight the feature of the remodel and keep a sign out front.

The text will show up highlighted as a quote.Similar for bold.For image, click image, type or paste in a link to a picture, then click it again.These just insert the word "quote", the letter "b", or the text "img" in square brackets the first time, and then with a leading slash the second time.
