Hello BP family, i just wanted to drop this post.

Hey @Michael Noto, thanks for the input, I ended up pulling the trigger on the HVAC. 4 bd 2 bth & 2bd 1bth duplex, hurts dropping the cash now but numbers say will pay off.

He cannot even get to a judge until June, and then the courts will be so backed up, it could take months to get his tenants evicted.Also, my local news reported that 1 in 5 market-rate apartments are missing rents right now, and nationally it's 1 in 3.

@JD Martin Great news.

If I am not receiving applications within that first 7-10 days (and mind you, I follow up aggressively with the folks who attend), I'll begin dropping the price, driving larger numbers of folks to the unit, until I meet the price folks are comfortable with.Bear in mind, all of this is done with a number in mind that I am not willing to go below. 

Thanks for dropping by.

Hold out for a top-notch tenant, even if you need to drop your rent a bit.

Came across your post and thought I'd drop a note.

Drop it. 

I am wondering if we should go on the higher side and potentially drop our rate down if we don't get much response, or if it is better to start lower.Thank you for any advice.
