QUOTE (thomasbeyer2000 @ Nov 10 2008, 12:59 PM) A picture says more than a 1000 words .. and your pictures are not inviting (to be polite) .. except the LR picture !

a) kitchen looks "cheap" .. cheap knobs, single (not double) sink, cheap countertop .. any mother will say "next" .. hence price is WAY too high - do you have a better picture or change the kitchen knobs at least and new countertop !!
b) no picture of house .. how come .. is it ugly ? just the primitive garage .. add a house picture from front .. flowers in full bloom .. !
c) bedrooms must be very small .. hence adjust rents accordingly
d) rents sounds WAY too expensive for a 1250 sq ft home .. $1800 .. + utilities .. no wonder you are having problems renting .. how about $1/ft to $1.20/ ft (TOPS !! for an excellent house only) or $1250 to $1400 ??
I disagree with you on this one Thomas. It clearly needs more pictures, but the ones posted look fine to me. I think he`s dead on with his price of $1800. I rent just the main floor of two 60`s bungalows, one for $1675 including utilties and one for $1575 including utilites. The basements are rented for $1200 incl. util and $1050 incl util. respectively. That easily clears $2000/mo for the whole house. The fact that it`s the whole house accounts for something. I agree with you about the single sink, but if there`s a dishwasher that shouldn`t be a problem. I rent the main floor of a duplex that was built in the 60`s. It`s just an average suite, and I`m getting $1375 plus utilies. The properties I am renting are in Killarney, Delwood and Dunluce.
$1250 to $1400 is WAY too low!!! Stick to your $1800 and get some signs out there on the street!! You`ll get dozens of calls. Since it`s a house for rent, make sure your sign says that. I had dozens of calls recently of people looking for whole houses and they were willing to pay $1800 in most cases.
