How long should I give a Property Management company?
Hi All, I'm a new landlord with a duplex in Montgomery, AL. It closed in the last few days of September. Now we're 2 months in, and the 2nd side is still not rented. I was told market rent was going to be about $650-675. We've had it down to $625 for the past month and hardly any qualified applicants according to the PM. A fellow BP friend told me to post in on Facebook Marketplace, and I probably have received about 150 inquiries, and I would send them the info and the link to apply. The PM still says nothing is coming in. I'm concerned, and not sure if this is normal, or if I should be interviewing other PMs. I did get this PM as a reference within BP so I had a certain base level of trust going in.

Facebook marketplace is pretty junky in my market. Lots of interest but people are flakey or unqualified. I don't even use Facebook any longer. Where does your PM have the property listed? Do they have yard signs?
