    Hi There
    I tend to agree with your comments. I have had my house up for lease in the Melbourne in the CBD for the past 8 months with hardly any enquiries. It is an excellent property and it is hard to believe that there have been hardly any enquiries in 8 months.

    Hi Ronulas

    Thanks for your reply.

    The agent actually said the asking price is fair it’s just that the rental market is quiet in Melbourne CBD which has been exacerbated by the number of vacant properties which are up for lease.

    However, I appreciate your comments and adding a sweetener such as an incentive may make all the difference.

    Thanks again [:D]

    Firstly,

    What reasons did the agents give for the property not renting. Are they valid? eg is the rent too high? By the tone of your post you don’t think so. If there is no obvious reasons then just advertise in local shop windows or drop some flyers in letter box’s and your property should rent no probs.

    On the other hand if there is some reason why your property is not renting eg too dark, then you may need to spend some time and money improving the disposition of the place.

    also,

    I have had no experience at this but there are some other posts that suggest adding some incentives to prospective tennants. eg set up electrical goods deal or something of that nature.
    Anything that will make your property stand out from the others.

    Hi Andrew

    It is actually a home/office so it is classified as commercial but has a front office and a house attached. Convenient for someone looking to live and work from home and it is located in Melbourne CBD.

    Thanks for the quote : )
