calling prospective tenants back on a new unit or offering a different unit

Just curious if you have multiple units how many of you call people back if you have a new unit opening? or offer people a different unit? I a have multi with 5 units all different but sometime people love the building but the apartment is not on the right floor or something else is wrong. I just had one unit renting and the guy said does it have a dining room I said no but I have a unit opening up soon that is under rehab and has a huge kitchen. He had to come see it and would have rented it on the spot if I let him (nice unit, view of the pond), new cabinets, redone flooring, huge windows. Now it is rented and not even done. In any case it got me thinking on a couple of people who came and said I want a first floor or the tenant who lost out on the unit. In a month I think I will have another vacancy is it worth it to email the people who I just turned away when the vacancy is confirmed or do you start fresh. These aren't people who just called, they came and saw a unit but wanted a first floor or were next in line for the unit behind a qualified tenant.
