*Rental Price: Comparable range based on terms. Lower end rental price = more conservative lease terms based on best credit and 1 year + lease. Higher end rental price = more liberal lease terms with OK credit, pets allowed and shorter than one year lease terms. All prices based on date of this post. Comparable rental range is not net, it does not factor in the price of repairs, holding costs, property management fees, etc. I will be happy to send you the rental comps via email.
