Trouble locating renters

[Jimmy Warr]

In Memphis TN, I have a 1 bed 1 bath unit in downtown Memphis. I have had several showings over the past month but I am yet to get a solid renter. Any suggestions on advertising ?

I would agree with Charles that if you are getting showings the rent could be to high for your area but you could also be advertising to lower income tenants who aren't looking for an up and coming area. I had this problem when I was advertising on local sites like Craigslist and not getting high quality tenants but once I listed it on zillow the possible tenants showed more interest and were more serious about renting.
