In most markets the gatekeepers of the MLS are realtors (in some areas its the title companies), so, yes, networking with a realtor is your best bet.

So, I'm interested in hearing opinions as to how this ends.My bet is that Crimea ends up under the Russian flag, literally or as another behind the "curtain" and independent, but not as part of Ukraine.....my guess.Not a thread about the White House being weak, it isn't, the same issues happened with Eisenhower, almost Carter, Regan and Bush 1 with Hungry.Here, I'm not so sure this wasn't totally orchestrated by Putin from the beginning, the insurrection in the Ukraine for the overthrow, support and coordination.

I also wanted to mention that the FIRST impression sets the tone on a property.In a few seconds a buyer decides if they want to see more or even consider buying a property.I bet in the time you had it listed there were many buyers doing a drive by and not even going inside of the property because of the exterior condition.

But your best bet might be Jersey City, though I don't know much about it.

I bet he's paying them $15+- a hour each and if he pays them more that's not your problem.

I would think Sept 1st would be your best bet but it wouldn't hurt to check at a local real estate office to ask when it is best to rent.It sounds like you want to clean the place up before renting but with people signing leases from Sept 1st to Aug 31st, I've seen cleaners come in after the move in date.

Your best bet is to call around to different banks. 

I think oil primer is the safest bet...but my odor may have been entirely from the indoor hvac coil.  

I'm thinking that is my best bet.  

Don't count on them year after year, you may get some but I wouldn't bet on it.....
