@Lynn McGeein  Hi Lynn - Thanks for the response. Great points to consider 

@Roy N.  Hi Roy - Thanks for the link to Corporate Stays; I've been trying to find the best exec rental site available. I will definitely give this a shot !

Hi Dane

I forgot to mention in the original post we also had an RE agent that also posted on MLS to increase visibility but unfortunately did not bring in any leads so far. Our contract with him just expired.

Hello fellow landlords

I'm looking for some advice on renting out a higher end fully furnished unit and would like your honest feedback.

I currently own a condo in the heart of downtown Montreal. This is a 2br/1 bath unit and have had some trouble finding a tenant for the past 2-3 months. This is my first time as a landlord and wondering if im doing anything wrong - is my price too high? 

We did some research around our area and comparable rentals go for approximately 2500-3000$/month. We decided to put our rental on the market @ 2475$ to be competitive. We've currently reduced it to 2375$ after we havent had much luck.

We've had maybe 10 people interested in the past 2 months that connect by email and never return any emails and 3 showings. No call backs after following up.

I currently post to Kijiji and Craiglist almost every day and have posted then ad on local university websites(McGill university).

Is my target market not looking for high end rentals on Kijiji and Craigslist?

Here is my Craiglist/Kijiji postings for reference:
