How long did it take you to rent out your property? I got several responses right away and it only took a couple of months, but I got lucky as I got a great lil family to rent, and all the others turned out flaky AF.

I’ve rented my rental property twice in under 40 days, with 20 applicants each time.

That should be renter in under 30 days, not 40.

I’ve had my property for 4 years and never had a vacancy. The day after one person leaves the next person moves in.

like

0 days. In 20 years of renting 6 properties, I have always had multiple tenants waiting in the wings. I market the property 2 months in advance, as soon as I get the previous tenant’s 60 day notice. I may lose 1-5 days in between tenants for cleaning, painting and repairs.

Depends on property, market demand, and how you price it. Price aggressively, moves faster. I have had the same property take a couple months to rent and in a different market (time) multiple people offer 6 months or more up front first day showing it…
