  1. Review my "Future Narrative"
  2. Practice filling in "Lease"
    Practice filling in a complete sample "Lease" before meeting with your Tenant or Tenant-Buyer to show a property and complete a "Lease".

    Mark this task complete once you've practiced filling in a complete "Lease" and asking your Contract and Paperwork Attorney any questions if they come up while doing it.

  3. Practice Tenant or Tenant-Buyer script
    Practice your script for incoming calls from Tenants and/or Tenant-Buyers.

    "Professionals practice off the field." The time to learn your script is not when you have a fully qualified, Tenant-Buyer with a large down payment on the phone.

    Mark this task complete once you've run through your script enough times so that you feel comfortable with it.

  4. Determine your Rent (or Lease-Option Rent)
    Determine what Rent you'll charge for the property or, if you're offering a Lease-Option, what Lease-Option Rent you'll charge for the property.

    This is often done by researching what Fair Market Rent is.

    Some Real Estate Brokers may subscribe to a service that allows them to pull rental comparables to help to determine rent.

    Mark this task complete when you have determined your Rent.

  5. Determine your Lease-Option minimum Option Fee
    If you're offering the Tenant-Buyer a Lease-Option, determine what is your minimum acceptable Option Fee.

  7. Class Watch "Marketing for Tenants" Recording of Live Class
  8. Review "Marketing for Tenants" Recording of Live Class
  9. Write Property Ad
    Write ad for Tenant and/or Tenant-Buyer using photos you took from when it was vacant.

    Include date available, monthly rent, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, property features, info on the kitchen appliances, whether there is a washer & dryer in the unit, just the hookups, or none of the above, parking details, etc. Be sure to highlight attractive aspects of the property such as easy access to major roadways or pool access.

    Review the ad to make sure you are not discriminating and are in compliance with the Fair Housing Act.

  10. Be prepared to answer your phone
    Once you start marketing, be prepared to answer your phone.

    As you market, prospective Tenants and Tenant-Buyers will expect to be able to reach you.

    If they can't reach you that sets the wrong tone for the start of the relationship. You come across as an unresponsive landlord.

    If you do miss a call, call them back as soon as possible. If prospective Tenants and Tenant-Buyers email or text you, reply quickly.

    Answer prospective Tenants and Tenant-Buyers questions. It is normal for them to ask questions that are already addressed in the ad. I believe most people don't actually read stuff (including your ad) and they're looking at a number of different properties.
