Troy Richardson and RE/MAX Maple Leaf Realty can market your property and find qualified tenants for your Bennington area real estate.

But how do you know how much rent to charge?

• Is your home in a good area? The phrase, “location, location, location” works for rentals, too. Typically, the closer a property is to the core of a town or city, the higher the rent.

• Check out rents in the same area. However, take amenities into consideration, as well as the condition of the home.

• Consider adding a bonus. Owners can lure in tenants with the offer of free rent, additional services such as garbage pickup or mowing service.

• Including utilities in the rent is a great way to draw college students or seniors. Updated appliances, balconies, decks, fireplaces, or other “lifestyle upgrades’ can play into the amount of rent you can charge.

The easiest way to answer all these questions, is to bring in the professionals, and allow Troy and his team to value your property, offer you advice on how to make it more attractive, and let RE/MAX Maple Leaf Realty market your rental property.
