    All

    I have a 4 unit block in Queensland that I would say was initially a good buy. The place was full when I exchanged on it but when I settled on the place I had only one tenant who broke lease and left about 2 weeks later.

    The management agency appeared very lazy and after endless phone calls I got 4 tenants in the place.

    During my search for tenants a lady called me from the ad I placed in the local papers and she said “oh those units” I asked her what she meant and she said that someone murdered themselves in the top unit of my place about a week after I exchanged on the property. Hence the reason why no one wanted to rent the places.

    The four leases are up on the place and 3 out of the 4 tenants are moving on? Do any of you have any ideas on the best ways to get tenants?

    hotshot, thats a bloody good idea, to go one step further, invite the local radio station around to watch a priest actually do one.
    again sounds silly but i bet you people would want to watch and therefore if rented could use the exorcism as a talking point.
    cheers
