Five Tips That Will Help You Find Renters

Advertise on social media.

Use social media as an additional tool to your marketing mix. Take an appealing photo of the unit, add to it a catchy subheading, and there you have it! Experiment with free or small cost Ads. Contact people where they spend the most time!
Offer a month of free rent. This is a great way to attract renters in even the most difficult rental locations. By offering free rent, you will help your apartment stand out from the masses, adding an additional incentive to visit the place.

Harness the power of a good first impression.

Uncleanliness is an undeniable factor that causes many people to walk away from a property. The unit you are showing may be spotless, but what about the lobby, the hallways and the building’s exterior? Take the time to replace worn carpets, repair scuffed walls, and have your cloudy windows cleaned. The least amount of visible wear and tear, the better.

Draw attention to local selling points with a gift card.

Is there a cute French bakery or a unique Irish pub hiding around the corner? Encourage local businesses while getting your potential tenants to fall in love with the neighborhood. Carry a few different varieties of gift cards and don’t be afraid to mention the perk that comes upon signing of a lease agreement.
Work with a property management company. Instead of going at it alone, why not get someone to help you find renters? Property management companies will work hard to place qualified renters into your property for a small fee.
