I offered 60 day notice, marginally higher monthly rent and a one month lease break fee. Worked for me, although I found that its more difficult to get this concession during the summer months; Landlords seem to prefer spring/summer lease breaks. It gives them more negotiating leverage during the peak rental season.

Also, if you have strong credit score and a good income, it helps to disclose it. Anything that makes you an attractive candidate helps.

I agree with what the other poster said. Property managers are less inclined to make concessions here. Look for an owner who manages the property themselves.

The fact of the matter is that for many places, take PQ for example it is laughable. If you wanna home in that 500-600k range good luck. Go to the beach and come back in October and hopefully we will have better inventory due to foreclosures. 6 months ago was the right time to buy. I am not saying the market is going up or you will be priced out forever. Just saying that right now, unless you move hard, move fast and come in strong, be prepared to be heartbroken. [/quote]

Well said, SDR. Exactly my sentiment. I’m closing up shop for now. Being a buyers agent must be more than frustrating right now with all the offers you have to write (to no avail).
