NO VACANCIES

Had two vacancies in August. They are both now rented.

I did lower my prices a little.

One unit I lowered by 6%. I rented it almost immediately.

The other unit I lowered gradually over the course of a month.

When I had gotten the price down by 17%, someone stepped forward and took it.

I really believe that if people are willing to take less, they will be employed. Holding out is a bad strategy. There is nothing wrong here with our economy that can't be fixed with a little humility.

Falling Rents

I finally have a vacancy in a Santa Monica apartment. First one this year.
I have been trying to rent it for about three weeks with no success.
I have dropped the price 14% so far from what I was getting. Two bedroom one bath

But I also just rented a one bedroom very easily (before the old tenant was even done moving out) after dropping the price only 6%.

Things are heating up around Los Angeles.

Traffic is heavy. Shoppers are out shopping. Looks like things are already getting over-heated.

The next twelve months should be interesting.
Good service, a good product, a good price. Those are the keys to good sales.
