Facts from the field: I just placed new tenants in my Tierrasanta property.
Ask any landlord, renting out property during the holidays is VERY difficult. In the past I would advertise and maybe get 2 interested parties per week. However this time I received tremendous interest from my Craigslist ad. It still took a little time to get the property rented (because small house?). So what has changed in San Diego is that there are a lot of people looking to rent instead of buying a house, even during the usually slow holiday period. If I had this property turning over this summer, I predict I could get 10% more rent due to the demand for it.
