i'm trying to distinguish what landlords are asking vs. what tenants are paying on a per sq ft basis for 2-3 bedroom condos, townhomes, and sfd's with garages.

I'm looking at a sample of 9 prospects ranging from about 1000 to 1600 sq ft and the per square foot asking prices range from $1.47 to $1.68.

Any hunches on what people are actually paying on new leases right now, on a per sq ft basis?

thanks!

I have compiled a closing history with that information here: http://www.irvinerealtorsite.com/IrvineLeases2008.xls

It doesn't have garage info, but should be sufficient.

You can use this to find good comps, as well, to justify a price reduction if you feel your rent is too high (or too low if you're a landlord).

Good luck,

Besides Craiglist and www.realtor.com, where are good places to look to find rentals in Irvine?
Most MLS listings will be on realtor.com.

I also use homeseekers.com but they usually are the same as realtor.com with just variances on update times and photos.

Other than Craigslist for non-MLS listings... you probably just have to go old school and look in the newspaper.

Or... just fire up the IR2-signal and let him do the work.

EDIT: speling eror

Would you stop being data driven, as a realtor you should only go with your guts.
