Print Rental Magazines

Many national and print magazines cater directly to the residential landlord. You've undoubtedly seen them in racks next to newspapers on the street. Listing in a national magazine usually makes most sense for large landlords with multiple properties. If you find a local magazine that has lots of listings for rentals like yours, you may want to use it.

Next Steps

After you advertise your space, you'll need to create a rental application and carefully select a tenant.

For help evaluating prospective tenants, see Every Landlord's Guide to Finding Great Tenants, by attorney Janet Portman (Nolo). This book includes 40 forms on CD-ROM, including a rental application; a legal residency form; and tenant consent forms for contacting references, performing a credit check, and performing a criminal and background check.
