Need advice on turning a rental property around quickly
I have a unit coming available on the 20th of October. The tenant is leaving on bad terms but I would be interested in this advice regardless of the terms.
What steps do you take to make sure you can get a property ready to rent quickly?
Do you start advertising the house for rent and then keep a list of who is interested for when the house is ready? I always feel a little awkward at this point because I don't want to have a house unrented for 30-45 days but I also don't feel like I'll know the true condition of the property until the tenant is completely out to tell people when a place will be available.
Any feedback on how you do it would be great!

I always start marketing 30 days prior and I'll schedule showings if the current tenant will allow. If it's not a friendly move out then just take names and numbers, do a little pre-screening and call them back as soon as you can get them in for a showing. Try not to let the current tenant slow your business down, it is your business!
