I'm mainly interested in buy/hold rentals for cash flow over the long term, as I'm not able to currently devote job-like attention to real estate.  

Does anyone out there have any ideas to get my place some attention quickly?

When you read posts from other readers be open minded but also look a little deeper into the agenda.

Not being negative here, just noting that I'm attentive to details.If anybody is a home inspector or can put me in touch with someone who would be willing to be a mentor for me I would greatly appreciate your advice.Thanks!

Tenants will appreciate the attention, and it will be one less thing to do when the units turn overIf the parking area is otherwise OK, restripe and/or paint fresh unit numbers on the parking spaces.Spend a few dollars on perennial flowers.

Yesterday in our local newspaper the front cover headline caught my attention "CRISIS IN THE RENTAL MARKET"  the article talks about the local rental vacancy rate being at 2.4% where the national average is 6.8%.  

I purposely withheld rent to get their attention after many unanswered emails and phone calls about basic stuff and a raging roach infestation!

Like most things, it's not hard but it does require attention to detail. 

If you're not a voracious reader, agreeing up front to read 5 is a monumental task.
