How do I talk them into renting to me?
I went to see a townhouse today in a community of townhouses(about 30 of them), and they only had one for rent and the rest were for sale. The one they had for rent wasn’t newly renovated like the rest of the townhouses that were for sale. They said that 50% of the community were renting from them and the other half were buying. I really want one of the renovated townhouse, but im not looking to buy right now. So how do I get them to let me rent one of their townhouse that are newly renovated?
The rent is $675 a month if I were to offer to pay higher rent every month, how much higher should I offer to pay? Or what could I do to make them change thier minds?
You may not be able to rent one due to community laws restricting the number of units rented (by percentage). That being said, if one is currently available than that means that one of the renovated ones could also be rented. How do you get them to rent one to you? Easy. Make an offer!!! Money talks louder than anything to a property owner in most cases. Of course you need to take in account that you will likely have to pay a much higher rental price for the renovated unit. Good Luck!

You probably can’t–they’ll make far more profit selling the renovated ones and renting the older ones.

you’re going to have to talk to someone in charge. most likely they won’t change their mind unless you have something to offer in return? or if you are a good businesswoman, maybe.

You can’t. They know what they are doing.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease, maybe. They may offer a lease until the real estate market picks up. Maybe.
