Why Not Also List Your Property For Rent?

  • Home Sellers have the legal right to also list their properties for rent while they have them listed for sale.
  • We can discreetly list your property for rent while you continue to seek a Buyer.
  • No charges unless a Tenant is placed.
  • When a Tenant is placed our Brokerage fee will be deducted from the initial funds they present to start the lease.
