So you purchased a rental property as a source of income. What now? First thing’s first: You’ll need to let potential renters know it exists and word of mouth will only get you so far in the digital age. 

You already know it’s a great time to rent out your property—research shows more U.S. households are renting now than at any point in the past 50 years, and landlords are earning more than ever.
