The county is going to go off the plan that was submitted.As for advertizing it for rent, say 'just over 2000 sq ft' which is accurate and not misleading. 

Each area differs in terms of where you advertize rentals. 

I am not sure how to advertize this as an option out on the market.And is something like this fairly common? 

Be careful not to post adverts here in the forums, rather wait for someone asking for a rec in your area. 

I am not sure if that is true.I would concentrate on adverting the property so you can get more applications. 

Get it advertized and if people want to see the place, give the tenants 24 hours notice and you accompany perspective tenants.

maybe Google just doing this like they did with Google Flights to leverage their negotiations for higher advertising dollars from VRBO/AIRBNB etc, like they did with Expedia/Hotels.com/United/Delta etc and they have no real interest in making it a discrete profit center but just a strong profit stimulant to their core advert business.buy more Google stock usually a winning formula last 20 years

I do pay a flat fee around $250 plus advertizing costs which to me is reasonable.

The one I use charges 8.5% a month, when there is a vacancy they get nothing, when they fill a unit, they get a set amount plus advertizing costs (not one month's rent which seems to be more common in the US), and when there is a problem they deal with it. 

My PM's policy is similar to Bill's (except for late fees, and I pay for advertizing on top of the placement fee).
