One great way to entice your tenants to stay for the long term is to provide them some incentives. Discounts at local retailers are a great place to start! Call or visit some brick and mortar stores in your area and talk with the manager on duty. Let them know how many tenants you currently have and that you want to help steer them toward that business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Most business owners are happy to give a 5-8% discount for their products or services when they know they\u2019re appealing to a larger number of people. Even if you don\u2019t have 100 properties that you\u2019re managing, getting in contact with them is still a great idea. Local businesses are always looking for support and you never know who will agree to work with you!<\/span><\/p>\n

Once you have a couple, create one page on your web site that outlines all of the vendors who are providing discounts and send that link to your tenants! Keep the URL simple and easy to remember (e.g. www.abcpropertymanagement.com\/discounts). You want your tenants to take full advantage of these incentives because that makes them feel like they\u2019re getting more value when renting from you!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you own an apartment community it can be as easy as having them change their driver’s license address and passing the street names on to that business. You can also purchase cost-effective \u201clive strong\u201d bracelets with your company name on them, which your tenants can wear to that business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
