There are 3 things I should do this weekend to increase my chances of finding renters: Lower my price on my web site ad. Right now it's high, $900 per week. I think I will lower it to the off-season level of $700. Second, advertise on craigslist. It's free, it can't hurt. Third, advertise in the newspaper. I have only seen one other furnished rental in the classified ads. That might be because they aren't popular or maybe because they are all rented. I hope for the latter.
It makes me nervous to see For Rent signs as I drive around town. The houses are empty and sad looking and I don't want my house to be one of them. I have earned enough rent money so far this year to keep my mortgage repayment plan going through June. That means I won't fall behind and have to change my 4 year payoff goal yet. I have 4 months to find a renter.
I don't want to jump back and forth between my house and and my RV like I did last year. I am just getting comfortable in my RV and I want to stay here. I need to do everything that I can to get that house rented.
