$120,000? for rizzle?

If the tourists rent from a homeowner, they’re gonna miss out on a $400,000 “bargain” at the Omni. It even includes a trip to the Gulag.

Another thought along those lines is that my target audience, being generally older, more affluent and less web savy, doesn’t even think about craigslist as a viable/reliable source for inauguration rentals. I’m advertising to the wrong market segment.

Although my roommates and I would like to rent out the apartment, we’re only willing to remove our valuables and live at a friends house for a certain amount. Perhaps we’re selling ourselves too high.

Want to rent your apartment to someone with a load of cash to blow on attending the inauguration? PAY A REALTOR. Yes, I said it – it will require you to pay a fee to a “trusted” third party. No political entity or others interested in spending that sort of cash to be in DC are going to check the DC Craigslist for rentals… they are going to ask a realtor to find them their housing options through a travel agent or local realtor.

I personally know people renting their Cap Hill homes for 10K+, but I know of NO ONE able to make anywhere near 15K/bedroom. It makes more sense to rent a one of those amazing downtown condos for a YEAR pre-paid than to do something like that.
