Anyway...back to the point...The rep that I just encountered from this group had advertised a property in a very desirable portion of North Dallas...an area of particular interest to me.  

That trend is VERY strong to those who want be owner-occupants. 

After I upg property and it was increased rent amount in MLS; they provided deposit as new rental amount ; but they want to pay rent as old advertised amount which is $100 less.Tenant is asking for $100 less on monthly rent or 6 month lease instead of initial 2-year lease which husband signed and received key from my agent.What are my option now?

Its a downsouth mainly industrie. lucky for me i dont think my competion has realized the potential of online advertising and what a cookie can do 🤔🤔 so i am gonna use it to my advantage..

Being in the "C" rental market - calendars & pens with your advertising on them seems to be a big hit with residents.

Doctors get a lot of this type of advertising.  

But I have read on here that property managers charge other fees on top of the flat rate they advertise.
