A: There are several factors that play in to how quickly a property rents. First, is the property vacant or occupied. Vacant properties tend to rent sooner than occupied properties. Second, is the condition of the property. When a property is clean, painted and ready for the next occupant, it is a lot easier to visualize oneself in the home. Third, is market demand. The average days on market is about 25. Some homes rent within 72 hours of coming on the market while others take 30-days to rent.
