@V.G JasonI agreeEven if fed reduces rates it will take months before it has any impactThe job market is far worse than media is making it out to be due to it being an election year.

To properly renew a lease with a tenant, several tasks SHOULD be done:1) Evaluate the property to make sure tenant is taking care of it and you want them to stay.2) Do a market analysis of rental rates.3) Determine target rental increase amount4) We present all this to the tenant, as we assume they're looking at rental rates on Zillow, etc.5) We then ask the tenant what adjustment they think is fair and then negotiate rent amount and lease term (we always try to go for 2 years).6) New lease sent electronically to sign.All of this takes time, hence a Renewal Fee.

Easy to write a state specific lease and make tweaks, and send for electronic signature.

So, agents do not use anything more sophisticated than posting to social media? 

Some companies offer social media marketing as well. 

Go to Etsy and search for "rental property tracker," and you will find hundreds of nice spreadsheets to track 10-20 rentals, usually for under $10.Software has extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button, and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

Look for reviews, recent closings, social media presence, and responsiveness.

Looking for an easy solution that allows for electronic tenant screening, lease signing, and document storage.
