I have not been getting any responses through Craigslist, especially because the contact phone number is "encryted" (wrriten-out) to eliminate SPAM and SCAMS.So,  my questions are:Should I be using a different rental approach?

You can somewhat 'play' with that scenario by upping your appreciation input, but to me that is gambling if you push it too high. 

Message a moderator or reply to the notice you got and they should reinstate your access.BP holds a pretty strict line or the forums will quickly get overrun with spam like most online forums.

I currently have about 100k equity there.2016 capital gains income: 02016 business / gambling income: 25k2017 capital gains income: 152k2017 business / gambling income: 28kChecking account balance: 100k+Credit score: 730Investment property price range 165k - 200k.I can get letter from CPA stating I've been in the same business since 2010.I'm being told they will take either last three years of capital gains or last two years of gambling. 

With smaller towns there is always that gamble. 

I do get my email spammed every so often but never really looked at their deals, although I'm starting to. 

Many say that buying for appreciation is simply gambling.

LinkedIn could also be a good site to get the word out although you might get spammed by brokers trying to list it for you.

Unless the property appreciates significantly beyond the average 2-3% which is a gamble something like this does not seem to be a great value.ThanksPesi

I am strictly buy and hold; anything I buy today has to be really appealing-not going to gamble on any dogs or overpriced queens at this stage of the market-and certainly not counting on any appreciation for the next while.
