There is little to no incentive to use a realtor to do listings in this area. One of my properties rents for about $2k/mo the other $1.5k/mo.

A couple of recommendations:

1) if you're looking for a 3/1 rental and you don't want to pay Feb rent, start looking around 2/10. If you look earlier folks will require Feb rent because of supply and demand.
2) if you inquire on any website be short, sweet, and specific with whatever you reply with. Don't just accept the generic inquiry text on the websites. Always follow up with a phone call and again be short and sweet.

Just being honest with ya here, for me....from my side, it is very difficult to even return all of the emails and phone calls I got. Feel free to DM me if ya want any other advice on how landlords work around here....
Landlords list with realtors who are performing property management in most cases. I haven't seen many who just list for MLS exposure.
