Tenants competing for Property

[Erik Garland]

Hey BP. This is the short of it. I have a fair application process, and those who pass it get my property first come first serve (signed contract is when I take SFR off market). A lady mostly accepted house out of state (move in to area), but has not gotten contract signed as of today.....but today I have two more prospects that really want it. I lowered my rent for a quick process, but now...

is it acceptable practice to allow tenants to BID  on the rental amount??

How might I go about that?

Could that violate or SEEM to a tenant to violate fair housing laws?  I'm in NC

Thanks
