Local resource to manage: getting the deadbeats out, sprucing up, advertising, showing, screening, moving in and maintaining good tenants.

I'd be glad to give you my lease and walk you through how we advertise and select renters.

They typically aren't well advertised (to brokers and agents) and normally only a few agents will have access to them.

When you are advertising for a "share" the rules are more flexible.You can use the wording as you did in your post.

My intention with this property was to sell straight to retail through local advertising and an agent if necessary.

If it turns out to be that the number you are comparing to is a real market average rent for your area, than: Let tenant finish his her lease and in the meantime advertise and also show the place to potential applicants.

One of them is a conventional 4 digit combination one.

When I save my receipts and bills digitally, I save them with a title like "Feb water 123 main street $63.54.pdf" so that when tax time comes, I can just scan my list of receipt and bill files and I don't need to actually open each PDF to get the dollar amount.

You can also use the Schlage motarized digital bolt locks where you can set remotely programed lock codes to your unit down stairs so that you dont even have to rekey or physically give the keys.

Can I increase the rent from what was advertised, PRIOR to a lease signing and with full disclosure?
