For sale or lease...

 


Should I rent or sell the house?  I consulted with two real estate friends.  Both did the numbers and said I would be better off renting it out.  I checked the rent rates in the neighborhood and set what I thought would be the best rate. 

Since I would be out of town, it would be difficult to handle calls, showing it, adding information to flyers, putting flyers out, so I thought, I'll set up a website!  That I could manage from anywhere. 
Then I put a sign in front of the house. 

And I got calls right away.  Several people wanted to see the house.  They all wanted to rent it. 

I rented it to a lady who had looked at it back when it was for sale and I purchased it.  She was happy to be able to rent it and I was happy to have her move in.
