Thanks @Theo Hicks I have Implemented your advise right away and lowered the price by $100. 

@Mike H.  I had it rented for $2149 previously, however I probably got lucky. According to Zillow, the rent range in this area is around $1900 / month. I lowered the price form $2149 to $2049 and will test it out for a week. 

I believe it has rehabbed fine, all the prospects came so far seems to like the place. No one complained about the place. Some people mentioned if I am flexible in price and I've told them my priority is to get the right tenant and I can work on the price. 

Hey Guys,

I am a new landlord, I rented my house previously to tenants and overall it wasn't a great experience. I did the background check, all came fine but just their behavior was not so great. They're gone now and I've spent time to refurbish the place and fixed all minor issues including new paint. I have several prospects came in and they all seems to love the place but very few get back. Maybe it is issue with the rent price or I am thinking since it is not listed on MLS, I am not getting full exposure, Monthly rent is $2100. I have it listed on zillow and all the related sites including Craigslist. Should I just go ahead and have RE agent to put it on MLS? What should I look for in the agent? What is their typical charge to place the right tenants.

@Dmitriy Fomichenko Thanks for great tips.

@Luis Ruiz Welcome to BP, I joined this wonderful community today as well. Our goals are very similar. 

@Kyle Tokasey Very interesting about the rural land investment, I started reading the blog in your signature. I guess I have one more thing to learn about.. This is great stuff.

@juan Artigas, good to know. I am connecting with you.

Hello All,
I recently discovered bigger pocket and I am hooked to it. In the past I've been to this website while researching different Real Estate topics but never looked into the forums. There is great wealth of information in here. I am just getting into real estate investment, I recently bought new home and turned existing home into rental property. My 1st tenant experience wasn't so great but I've learned wealth of knowledge in the process. My goal is build portfolio of properties for rental income. I work full-time in IT field and would love to generate passive income on the side for now and hopefully scale it up. To equip myself with knowledge about real estate investment, I am listening to BP podcast starting from show 1, I believe I've listened to over 9 shows in past couple of days.

I would love to meet up experienced and new investors in the areas to discuss ideas about starting in real estate investments.
