Rentals on Craigslist

Yes, Craigslist has been around for a while, and even though it’s receive a bad reputation for certain listings, it’s easily one of the best sources for finding rentals in your area. It’s also great for finding Milford CT real estate.

So when you’re searching for rentals in the area, simply go to Craigslist and check out the various listings. You can narrow down rentals by the monthly rent, the number of bedrooms needed, and the location as well. Only go for the rentals that have images in the listings, as there’s a chance that a listing without pictures could be a scam of sorts. It’s better to be safe than sorry. You’ll also be in a safer position to find a rental listed by a Realtor, but not too many Realtors do that. If you can’t find Realtor-listed rentals, don’t fret.

What about if you’re an owner of Milford CT real estate and want to rent out your property? Craigslist is the best place to advertise your rental. From my personal experience, if you consistently list your rental along with calls to action pointing to your contact information on top of nice images and even a video, you’re bound to get several calls or emails a day. As long as you have a good property to rent out, you should not have a problem finding a renter.

However, listing Milford CT homes for sale on this site is a different ball game. Don’t expect the same surge of leads as compared to rental listings. Buyers are less likely to resort to Craigslist for browsing, as a lot of home listings don’t have images. This is mostly due to the fact that a lot of Realtors don’t know how to upload images or utilize the HTML web coding language to embed images in their lisitngs.

I know what it’s like, so I’m there to guide you through the entire process, whether you intend to buy, sell, or rent. I’ll walk you through every step of the way to make things easier for you. Trust me. The process is nowhere near as complicated as you think as long as you have the proper guidance along the way.

  1. Hi, this is the great work in Milford real estate market here is one more company, There are a lot of people out there that fully understand the benefits of investing in rental property and are prevented from doing so because of a few things, mainly fear. Fear of the unknown, fear that people won’t pay their rent, fear that they will be taken advantage of by contractors and lots of other fears, some real and some that have been overblown in their own minds. We are very aware of these fears, as we had the same ones before we took the plunge into becoming landlords. After hearing the same concerns from prospective investors over and over again we realized the need for HeadAcheFreeRealEstate.com.
