As far as direct mail goes, I'd just touch them with a professional piece that offers a solution to their problem, with some attempt at differentiation (why pick you?).

The solutions might be to give the tenants the option of doing a a lease reassignment.

Most agents find that Re/Max has the best solution for experience agents and still great resources...I started with a small boutique brokerage, and got 0 training and I floundered for 6 months before I started to really get how it all worked...don't make the same mistake I did - in retrospect, I wasted time and lost deals because of it.

I spent time after that in software selling big data solutions most recently.  

Constantly monitor the market based on your criteria.  

Then there are turn-key solutions.

Now I am wish I had just filed immediately.I had declared everything upfront to the bank I have a decent credit score, above 660 which was the cut off for this loan but I have never heard of PMI Ins having stricter criteria.Anyone know of any solutions or if there are PMI comanies who I could go through?

I think as @Steve Vaughan mentions "procuring cause" is an important issue with listing agreementsRemember that it's the sellers money that needs to be paid to the listing agent even if they fail to sell the house for a period of time after the listing expires if that listing was the reason why you found the property (MLS)What I do with the seller if we have an existing listing it hasn't expired yet but it's close to expiring, is to ask the seller to contact the broker of record, Bring your listing agreement with them, and have them cancel the listing in writing, specifically saying that if they do rent it or sell it down the road they are owed no moneyAnother possible solution is to give the agent/broker of record some money to reimburse them for marketing efforts, which include signs and Internet labor."

If there is a zoning/permitting issue, then the City needs to get with the program because having some tightly-monitored efficiencies available would go a long way toward dealing with the homeless.BTW, it seems there were some homeless alcoholics living or at least meeting in our house before we bought it, who are now out of a home.

I am okay with the rents being lower by 5% but anything more@Casey Miles Based on the little experience I have with the being a landlord and the issue I am facing above I would say you should monitor the rents yearly and as long as as the rents are 5% to 10% off market we can not increase the rent.
