How do agents market upcoming open houses for their properties other than posting to Instagram and setting the open house times on the MLS?

Lenders also will typically provide rehab funds in the form of draws where completed work is reimbursed instead of given up front. 

If you're providing value, people will come. 

Corporate leases typically provide stable, longer-term tenants, while Airbnb can yield higher nightly rates but may involve more management and turnover.

A nice touch is to provide some nice metal shower curtain hanging rings already installed on the rod and a nice translucent milky colored shower curtain that fits, brand new sitting on top of the toilet tank waiting for them when they move in- so they can take a shower and not have water go all over the floor for the first few days.

We would be so grateful for any input, experience, or recommendations from homeowners or agents regarding what would be the preferred choice for 1) attracting rental guests in the short term, 2) retaining value for resale and not looking dated in 10 years, 3) protecting ourselves from accidents.  

Working with a knowledgeable local agent and keeping your finances ready will help you seize good opportunities.

I am new to this market and would like some recommendations for agents that work with out of state investors. 

.- 12/13 the check of course bounces due to her putting a stop payment on the check- 12/13 I was notified that she turned off utilities on 12/12- 12/14 I provided her email stating I would be checking on the property on 12/15 (24 HR notice)- signed lease through August 2018- I have $1650 ($1350 rent and 300 pet deposit) in security deposits- upon checking on property I found that there are no items of value in my property and she had left all keys and garage door openers that I had originally provided her.

.: Around here a lot of landlords offer section 8 tenants $300 cash when they move in with $0 security deposit.Why would anyone pay that much to move in a Section 8 tenant and also provide no security deposit?
