[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally always had more luck with smaller landlords— both cheaper rent and generally more responsive. A landlord who held on their starter condo or home is always a good bet, because they have an interest in maintaining it and generally are interested in stable tenants over lots of profit. [/quote] Op here. Yeah, I think so to. On the flip side, you risk the landlord wanting to sell or move their kid in. Is a realtor the best way to find smaller landlords? I do see some single family homes/townhomes/condos on Hotpads etc from time to time but not sure if you really need to go through a realtor?[/quote] I have always used Zillow and communicated with landlords there. I’ve rented 3 different dc rowhomes that way, all were totally fine. It’s true that many landlords want to avoid realtors, since they take first month’s pay (though the landlord pays that, not you.)[/quote]
