SANTA MONICA, CA -- 10/06/08 --
WestsideRentals.com, the leading home
finding service in Southern California, announced plans to launch free
Landlord Seminars for the month of October. The first Landlord Seminar will
be held at its Santa Monica Corporate Headquarters at 1020 Wilshire Blvd.
at 7 PM on Tuesday, October 7.
The 12-year-old Santa Monica-based organization has garnered a reputation
of producing higher quality tenants for landlords throughout Southern
California, but has largely relied on word of mouth to build its loyal
customer base. The Landlord Seminars will present a new level of awareness
by providing landlords with expert tips and advice on how to get their
rentals successfully rented in today's challenging economy.
"Mark [Verge] wanted to offer landlords expert advice by presenting free
weekly seminars for the month of October at our corporate headquarters,"
said spokesman Randy Wecker. "It's our aim to provide landlords with the
best possible tools and services to get their properties rented as quickly
as possible."
The Santa Monica-based organization expanded to include the San Diego
rental market two years ago and now has 7 office locations to help local
renters throughout Southern California. Verge started in 1996 by calling
local landlords and listing their vacancies for free out of his garage and
then selling the list as the legendary 4 PM "HotSheet" to lines of eager
renters. The organization has sustained growth and expanded to over 80
employees who regularly check with landlords to confirm the availability of
their rentals. The service has evolved to serve the higher quality renters
that landlords seek.
"While most businesses are feeling the pains of the downturn in the
economy, WestsideRentals.com's business has actually increased due to
foreclosures and the increase demand for home rentals. Business has never
been better and now is the time to rent," said Wecker.
WestsideRentals.com has been the predominant marketplace for rentals in
Southern California for the last decade by creating tools for landlords to
promote their vacancies for free while high quality renters pay $60 for 60
days to access the best rentals in Southern California. Tuesday evening's
event will be catered.
