Question...once you begin JUST showing properties to prequalified inquiries, how many showing does it normally take before you rent the property?

Usually, we find on in the first half dozen pre-screened prospects that we show to. --50.45.xxx.xx |

1-5, maybe, depending on property. I show up to 5 in one hour, every 15 minutes. Sometimes I can't fill five slots on one day, so I have to schedule another. So a total of 2 hours can be spent showing it, with up to 10 prospects seeing it. --50.82.xxx.xx |

Hi,
Could you tell me where or how do you post/place the listing, so you could get so many prospects to show your property?
Yes, I started doing the open house on Sunday, I will do it on Sat. (tomorrow).
I wonder God is making joke on me. It is a very nice property, in a super convenience location. How should I do to attract the qualify tenants soon!!!
Thanks. --136.62.xx.xx |

I give out the combination to our lock box between 5-10 pre-qualified times before we sign a lease with a fully approved tenant. Varies based on the season and time of the month. --68.188.xx.xxx |

Laura,
We do lockbox showings, giving the codes only to the folks who are 90% qualified, before we do the 2 Minute In Home Visit.
We average giving 2-3 applicants the lockbox code before we sign a lease.
Reminder: we have great photos on the web AND a full video walkthru BEFORE they go to see the home. These cut down A LOT of questions and house issues. People want info on their phone before they "buy".
AND it saves us time and FREEDOM!!!
BRAD

It all depends of the "time of year", "location" and "price".
Sometimes when there is a shortage of rentals, I had 11 qualified grounds show up to an open house at a commercial apartment building of mine. Then when I accepted the 1st applicant that could sign the lease and give me all of the move in costs the next day, I offered other apartments near by to the next on the list. Within the two days I also rented out an apartment in a duplex and triplex, all from one ad and one showing. There was a shortage and I was asking around $50-$75 below market. --47.156.xx.xx |

If your property looks good and is up to date like mine, one or two showings. Mostly just one showing. Make it look so good you would live there yourself. --73.178.xxx.xx |

Laura,
If this helps, we average 1.2 In Home Visits per lease.
The .2 comes is some fail, some find something else, some split nefore we sign...

Yes, I would love to live there again. I lived there before.
We have been kept it to its best, up to the modern, the tile floor, the high-end bathtub....etc....
That's the reason when a single mom who has nine kids, although only the oldest three will lease it, but I decline their lease.

Typically the first one to see it and pay the application fee gets it. If not the first then the second.
After they pay the application fee and are approved they must pay the security deposit/holding fee immediately. If they are not able to do so it goes to the next qualified applicant who is able to do so.
Every time the first person needs to think about it they come back in a day or two and now want it and it's gone. But I have a great market so I'm lucky like that. --173.170.xxx.xxx |

Since March, I have received 28 actual applications in total for 10 different units - this includes couples so actually fewer apps per actual unit.
We rented or would have rented to 20 of these (a few changed their minds or found another place; or waited a bit too long to apply and missed out.)
14 actually signed leases.
Only 6 were outright NO's. Of the 6, only 2 were for income - overstated it in pre-screening. The rest were for odd reasons. One of my notes indicates she was going through a bad breakup, another was he didn't have any access to the internet, email so too difficult to communicate with him - his friend was filling out the pre-screening and application questions for him.
Anyway, I guess what I am saying is that by pre-screening pretty thoroughly before I meet them, it cuts way down on bogus apps - and means that by the time I actually show them the place, I'm pretty sure I would accept them. --50.82.xxx.xx |

It takes longer for a vacancy in winter, but during the warmer months we generally only have to hold two open houses to fill a vacancy. And I'm pretty picky about my applicants, even in my C neighborhoods. --204.210.xxx.xxx |
