Is the problem that you're emailing them late or that they just never respond? Here are some tips that I find work for me: - Always call if you can instead of emailing, find out who the management company is and call them. - Always attend the showing if they're having one, that is your chance to make a good impression. - Not every landlord posts online (believe it or not). I have found many phone numbers listed in "For rent" signs all over the city and there's a lot less competition. Grab a bike and go for a ride all over one day. - This is a sales technique but I sell the shit out of myself when I express interest. I basically lead with the fact that I'm a great tenant and that I'm READY to move in and pay first, last, deposit, no problem. Establish that you are financially secure and aren't going to be a jackass and it usually helps push them towards you.
