Are you seeing rent applications slow down?

Hi Guys,

I just bought my first duplex in December. It is a surprisingly nice place on the East Side a few streets from the city line with Oregon. It is a nice place on a quiet street that we [me, agent, property manager, others] all expected to go fast. Here I am dropping my price and getting very little interest. This is like new flooring, land, allows dogs, dishwasher, washer/dryer hookups, quiet street, close to 280. Is there a trend I need to be aware of. Would love input from current landlords In Toledo, especially in C-D neighborhoods and/or East side.

Quote from @Jay Thomas:

Real estate professionals know how important it is to have quality pictures of your rental property. Not only does this make a good first impression on potential renters, but it can also be the difference between getting your listing seen or not.

In order to maximize exposure, most property management companies list their rentals on 10-12 websites. However, even when you have maximum exposure, listings tend to get stale after two weeks and the tenant quality usually decreases. To keep your listing fresh and at the top of search results consider delisting for a few days and then reposting it.

Lastly, don't forget about east side rentals - they generally take longer to fill up so look for local assistants in East Toledo neighborhood groups as well. With the right relationships, you can have success in filling up those east side rentals!

Did you put my response in a chat ai bot and just reword what I said? 🤣
