Many of the medical professionals line up housing in advance, some 30 to 90 days out, and I want to require a deposit to hold the property until they arrive to sign the lease and move in as I am getting multiple calls for the same time frames.  

Are you trying to arrive at a value to sell the portfolio or just to inform the owner?

They normally arrive in the middle of the night, so I meet up with them the next day at the house. 

I greeted them at the airport upon their arrival and had a welcome basket in their room that included local maps and information. 

Did you arrive at any particular insights that you think are valuable to share with others about the Charlotte market?

If one tenant likes it cooler and another likes it hotter- no problem!

I have an employee Arriving at the store to open here shortly and I’m having her look “one more time”.The tenant’s lease is up June 15 and I know she wants to stay.

Doesn't help that we have a child arriving in less than 2 months but....hesitating none the less. 

Then I'll set a triggered message for a day after arrival to 'check in' with them, make sure they are enjoying their vacation, ask them to reach out with anything they need, etc.Here is what i already do.

This will probably only be for the first year students who want to live off campus.There is probably a niche market for students who come to town at the beginning of summer (either for school or work), but that would generally depend if it was a college town or a major city that has work opportunities for college kids.Also, if it is a major/competitive university you can expect some very last minute arrivals.
