The bigger the better
Try to search the maximum amount of bedrooms and baths as possible so the home attracts larger families and groups with more couple can share the home.
Photos for success
Bear in mind that the more photos you post on the site, the more it costs, though the higher the listing is placed in the target market. Attempt to place not less than 10 photos with the best exterior attribute of your property as the first or top listing picture, the listing can followed by best interior shots and even property picture taken during night.
Right Management for you

Anticipate paying a management company 20% to 30% to the total rental income or for local manager around 10% or upon negotiation for monthly or hourly rate.
