Create a comprehensive listing: Create a detailed and accurate listing of the property on CoStar. This should include information such as the property's location, size, amenities, and rental rates. Make sure your listing is up to date and include high-quality photos and videos to showcase the property. Consider adding or linking a 3D Floor Plan if you have the capability.

Optimize for search: Use relevant keywords in the listing to make it easier for potential tenants to find the property. This will increase the visibility of the property and make it more likely to be seen by the right people. Review and refresh the listing on a regular basis.

Respond Quickly: Prospective tenants often reach out to more than one property with their initial questions. Property managers who demonstrate responsiveness by responding quickly, with accurate, comprehensive information have a better chance of landing a showing.

Complete your Profile: Tenants want to know and feel comfortable with their property management team. Fill in your professional accomplishments and accreditations to improve your personal brand.

Utilize CoStar's marketing tools: CoStar offers a range of marketing tools, such as email campaigns, targeted advertising, and social media integration that can be used to reach potential tenants. Take advantage of these tools to reach a wider audience and increase the property's visibility.

Build relationships: Connect with other real estate professionals on CoStar and build relationships with potential tenants and other industry professionals. This can lead to more leads and potential tenants for the property.

Monitor the competition: Use CoStar to keep an eye on the competition, including other properties in the area and their rental rates. This will help to ensure that the property's rental rates are competitive and will increase the chances of attracting tenants.

Analyze data: CoStar provides a lot of data on the commercial real estate market (which is why they are always calling to ensure your data is up to date), use that to analyze the market trends, and see how your property is performing compared to the market. You can also use the data provided by CoStar to target potential tenants, this way you will be able to reach out to the right person with the right message.
