How long in between securing a tenant & move in?
I'm renting out my first apartment. It became vacant early this month. It is a 4 bedroom. I've had a lot of interest and many want to move in however none are looking to move in tomorrow. Typically Sept 1. What is the best way to handle this? A concern of mine is that someone willing to up and move ASAP might be a low quality tenant. But I also don't want to burn 2-3 weeks in tenants because tenants don't want to or can't afford to pay double rent. This is a somewhat low income blue collar working town. Any advice would be great. Thanks
