Just randomly checking my records. Out of 390 legitimate inquiries so far in 2019, meaning they filled out our pre-screening questions in full (even if they didn't qualify at all) we actually rented to 8 people. So what is that, like .02%? --50.82.xxx.xx

2 percent --24.20.xxx.xxx

Every once in a while I hit the lottery with a 2 to 1 or 1 to 1 ratio but I don't try to kid myself into that being the norm. --50.32.xxx.xx

Those are statistics of discipline that will continue to drive your success. Keep up the good work! --73.177.xxx.xx

9 units. One is still available (or just became available again due to Crazy Prospective Tenant mentioned on another thread.) It's not empty, it will be available for July 1st. --50.82.xxx.xx

Are your rents too low? That is a lot of inquiries??? --76.242.xx.xxx

We are about 1 tenan/150 inquires Like NE. We use showmojo instead of tenant turner. Some people do not read the listing description. they just want to see every unit on the market. --97.91.xxx.xxx

There is just nothing available, and what is available is too far away, or not pet-friendly, or is student housing, or is simply a scam. --50.82.xxx.xx

Just checked the numbers to fill my last two vacancies and almost identical to yours. Nearly 100 inquiries...finally found two qualified prospects who wanted them and were able to pass screening. --24.20.xxx.xxx

Average rent- $600/mo... class B --74.133.xx.xxx

Screen x3. (Time and Effort) --184.53.x.xx

--73.102.xxx.xxx

I tend to get around 20 inquiries per rented unit. That's enough for me.... --47.156.xx.xx

I had two replies for my current empty and the first one qualified. What's that statistic. --173.61.xxx.xx

That statistic is an overeager property manager. --73.177.xxx.xx

Having some "pre-screening criteria" that you can publish may reduce the "wishful thinker" applications...I know it did for me. I am around 3% due largely to implementing this process. I just list some of the "general traits of a successful applicant" and many people don't bother to apply. --99.92.xxx.xxx

Thank goodness for this website, these people, Jeffrey's course and the trainers he finds to teach us. --50.82.xxx.xx

10 apts listed on zillow. This week on our online application : 500 views, 40 completed the form (7%). 300 emails from zillow. The only apt we rented in one week was from a tenant moving to different apt. The thing we are seeing is the need and interest is there but zero follow up on calling, texting, completing applications and emails. 100% applicants whining on fb pages they cant find any apts. --73.227.xxx.xxx

My numbers are roughly 100 pre-screen to 1 good tenant. The ratio for inquires is much higher. I get a lot who don't respond to the request that they complete the pre-screen. Of those who do, the bulk get culled due to income, lack of job tenure and criminal history. The people complaining about the lack of apartments are also complaining about the lack of jobs. I'm not suggesting that they're totally without challenges, but most either aren't willing or don't know how to go about getting either. --209.122.xx.xxx

Gkarl, don't even bother to try to count those who FB, "Interested!" or "Is this available?" Or words to that effect with ZERO follow-up... --50.82.xxx.xx

Getting 1 qualified renter out of every 100 replies. Most don’t qualify because of income and/or previous eviction. --71.10.xxx.xxx

I seem to be getting 2-3 ESA or service animal requests with each vacancy, always a breed of dog that my insurance company won't accept. --98.146.xxx.xxx

WMH, If I counted all of those, the number would be at least 300 to 1 --64.121.xxx.xxx

I would be interested in learning how people make out with that reduced deposit trick at the convention - but most of the people who are asking don't seem like they would qualify normally either....but you never know --24.101.xxx.xx

390 applicants means you are wasting time. set your parameters higher. --107.77.xxx.xxx
