Its definitely priced higher, but I tend to weed out weak applicants. My other rental people ask for a lower price and I meet in the middle. But who am I to say. 

Hi BP Community,

I posted my rental 13 days ago and have not had many serious candidates. Unless hiring a listing agent, any ways to boost my leads? I posted on Zillow, Trulia, Hotpads and Apartments.com. I will be posting on FB Marketplace later today.

Much appreciated.

I do not. I personally keep it private. 

Thanks, Russell.

Hey,

Can I receive some constructive feedback for my rental posting? Former house hacker so I was always renting by the room.

12/10 post. 100% agree with you but one caveat, people are always afraid to take action. Might have all the resources in the world but too afraid to Househack, buy the investment property, etc.

Have you looked into a fixed home equity loan? I used this strategy to lock in 4.85% in Mar-23.

Opportunity Cost. You would have paid for example $1,200 rent, now paying let's say $500 of your $2,100 mortgage payment as you grow equity in the home. Indirect costs add up quickly!

 Dang good to know about depreciation. I didn’t start writing off my depreciation until I moved out of the primary!

Alan,

As you know I'm the SFH 2x house-hacker! Having two SFH (one as my primary and the other now as a rental), I am using that experience to pivot into Multi Family. So happy you got me on board for FHA 2-4 unit property for my next purchase!

Thanks for the continued content.
